Description

The Orangutan is characterised by its ape-like shape, shaggy red fur, long arms and grasping hands and feet.
This ‘man of the forest’ is now only found on the islands of Borneo and Sumatra in south-east Asia.

The destruction of habitats through commercial logging, forest clearance for oil palm plantations and agriculture, have contributed to this animal’s need for protection.  In addition, uncontrolled fires and human exploitation present further challenges.  It is more important than ever to safeguard the future of this well-loved species.

This coin is housed in a Perth Mint standard shape black presentation case and illustrated shipper accompanied by a numbered Certificate of Authenticity.

*Notes on Donation: Donation of AUD$1.99 will be made to WWF-Australia for each coin released in this program.
