Orangutan

Orangotango

The orangutan is a genus of exclusively two Asian species of Great Primates. Native to Indonesia and Malaysia, orangutans are found only in the tropical forests of Borneo and Sumatra. Classified in the genus Pongo, orangutans were considered a species. However, since 1996, they have been divided into two species: the Borneo orangutan and the Sumatran orangutan. In addition, the Borneo orangutan species is divided into 3 subspecies. Orangutans are also the only surviving species of the subfamily Ponginae, which also included several other species such as gigantopithecus, the largest known primate. Both species had their genome sequenced and appear to have diverged about 400,000 years ago. Orangutans diverged from the rest of the great primates about 15.7-19.3 million years ago. Orangutans are the most arboreal primates and spend most of their time in the trees. Its fur is typically reddish-brown, unlike the fur of the Gorillas and the Chimpanzees. Males and females differ in size and appearance. O orangotango é um género de exclusivamente duas espécies asiáticas de Grandes primatas. Nativo da Indonésia e da Malásia, os orangotangos são encontrados somente nas florestas tropicais do Bornéu e da Sumatra. Classificado no género Pongo, orangotangos foram considerados uma espécie. No entanto, desde 1996, eles foram divididos em duas espécies: o orangotango-de-bornéu e o orangotango-de-sumatra. Para além disso, a espécie do orangotango-de-bornéu está dividida em 3 subespécies. Os orangotangos também são as únicas espécies sobreviventes da subfamília Ponginae, que também incluiu várias outras espécies como o gigantopithecus, o maior primata conhecido. Ambas as espécies tiveram o seu genoma sequenciado e parecem ter divergido há cerca de 400.000 anos atrás. Orangotangos divergiram do resto dos grandes primatas há aproximadamente 15,7-19,3 milhões de anos atrás. Os orangotangos são os primatas mais arborícolas e passam a maior parte do seu tempo nas árvores. O seu pêlo é tipicamente marrom-avermelhado, ao contrário do pêlo dos Gorilas e dos Chimpanzés. Machos e fêmeas diferem em tamanho e aparência.
