The name orangutan means "man of the forest" in the Malay language. In the lowland forests in which they reside, orangutans live solitary existences. They feast on wild fruits like lychees, mangosteens, and figs, and slurp water from holes in trees. They make nests in trees of vegetation to sleep at night and rest during the day. Adult male orangutans can weigh up to 200 pounds. Flanged males have prominent cheek pads called flanges and a throat sac used to make loud verbalizations called long calls. An unflanged male looks like an adult female. In a biological phenomenon unique among primates, an unflanged male can change to a flanged male for reasons that are not yet fully understood.
The Endangered Sanctuary is an NFT project representing each animal on the endangered species list.
The project is made up of 80 distinct animals and 235 NFT’s. Like the endangered species they represent, each NFT has a conservation status indicating rarity. No additional animals will ever be minted.
There are 4 categories, which indicate the number of animals in the sanctuary:
-
Critically Endangered (1)
-
Endangered (2)
-
Vulnerable (4)
-
Near Threatened/Least Concern (5)
10% of secondary sale profit will be donated to wildlife charities in perpetuity. Follow @NFT_Zoologist on Twitter for donation updates.
