Description
This image was taken at the wildlife sanctuary in Kunming China Yunnan Province. Orangutans once lived in the tropical forests of southern china but now are only found naturally on the islands of Borneo and Sumatra. 97% of their DNA is identical to humans and they can live up to 40-50 years. As seen here, the males possess enormous cheek flaps called flanges which certainly catches your attention and the reason I took a lot of time taking this portrait.
