Re: Google's Adorable Android Ad Features Furry Friends

redapes — Thu, 12 Feb 2015 18:05:36 -0000

This Android ad is an abomination and should be taken off the air immediately.

Upon first glance, the video clip seem like a heartwarming example of friendship breaking the species barrier, and your first instinct might be to share the commercial with other animal lovers. The ugly reality is that exotic animals such as the orangutan and the elephant seen in the commercial are trained at a very young age (when they should be with their mothers) to pose for photos with humans, and they are forced into relationships with other species for the sole purpose of creating and circulating "cute" photos and videos-- and ultimately making money. The orangutan, Suryia, and the elephant, Bubbles, both live at Myrtle Beach Safari in South Carolina, which has a history of repeated animal welfare violations. Masked behind what they claim is a sanctuary preserve, the facility regularly exploits their wild animals for a variety of media productions and endangers the public by offering "hands-on" experiences and traveling shows. Apes are wild animals, and without proper enclosures and respect for their true nature, many have attacked and brutally mauled humans.

Re: Argentine Court Rules that an Orangutan Has (Some) Human Rights

Orangutan Outreach is thrilled to hear about the Argentinian court's decision regarding Sandra. Hopefully this will change how orangutans are treated around the world. Unfortunately, Sandra's case is not unique. There are captive and abused orangutans all over the world who need help...

Re: Increased Palm Fruit Oil Demand Killing Orangutans

redapes — Sat, 08 Jun 2013 11:56:44 -0000

Orangutans are critically endangered in the wild because of rapid deforestation and the expansion of palm oil plantations into their rainforest home. The situation described in this article is all too common unfortunately. If nothing is done to protect these amazing creatures, they will be extinct in just a few years.

Re: Donald Trump proves he's not half orangutan, demands $5 million from Bill Maher

redapes — Thu, 10 Jan 2013 13:15:30 -0000

Orangutan Outreach -- http://redapes.org -- stands ready, willing & able to have Trump's DNA tested. We are 100% confident that despite the curious hair color and odd facial grimaces, Trump is in fact NOT half orangutan. Orangutan males are handsome, intelligent and progressive in their thinking. They are wonderful to be around and the ladies love them! Very un-Trumplike. http://pinterest.com/redape...

Orangutan conservationists would greatly appreciate if the $5 million could instead be used to protect critically endangered orangutans and their rainforest habitat. Orangutan Outreach, a registered 501c3 US charity, could do a lot of good with even a fraction of that money. Just ask Colbert: http://redapes.org/colbert

Re: Palm oil industry adds lobbying muscle to EPA climate battle - The Hill's E2-Wire

redapes — Thu, 17 May 2012 17:48:51 -0000

If the EPA changes its ruling on palm oil the result will be catastrophic.... Around 90% of the global supply of palm oil comes from Indonesia & Malaysia and this has come at a tremendous environmental cost. Indonesian forests are being burned to the ground-- releasing so much carbon into the atmosphere that Indonesia now ranks only behind China and the US in carbon emissions-- and it is barely industrialized. The UNEP estimates that the forests of Indonesia are being cleared at a rate of 6 football fields per minute every minute of every day.

The palm oil industry is guilty of truly heinous ecological atrocities, including the systematic genocide of orangutans. The forests of Borneo and Sumatra are the only place where these gentle, intelligent creatures live, and the cultivation of palm oil has directly led to the brutal deaths of thousands of individuals as the industry has expanded into previously undisturbed areas of rainforest. Here's the latest atrocity in Sumatra's Tripa peat forests: http://endoftheicons.wordpr...

When the forest is cleared, adult orangutans are typically shot on sight. These peaceful, sentient beings are beaten, burned, mutilated, tortured and often eaten. Babies are torn off their dying mothers so they can be sold on the black market as illegal pets to wealthy families who see them as status symbols of their own power and prestige. This has been documented time and again.

If nothing is done to protect orangutans, they will be extinct in just a few years. Visit the Orangutan Outreach website to learn more: www.redapes.org

The EPA should NOT reverse their decision. If they do, it is for one reason only: Because they have been bribed by the palm oil lobby.Around 90% of the global supply of palm oil comes from Indonesia & Malaysia. This has come at a tremendous environmental cost. Indonesian forests are being burned to the ground-- releasing so much carbon into the atmosphere that Indonesia now ranks only behind China and US in carbon emissions-- and it is barely industrialized.
