This is a brand new blog and will be dedicated to the ongoing dilemma facing the Orangutan's in the country of Sumatra. These creatures are being threatened greater every day, with Palm Oil productions and deforestation on protected lands being the main concerns. Protected lands which the Orangutan's inhabit, have little or no enforcement by local government, allowing Palm Oil companies, along with logging companies to wreck havoc on the already weakened rainforest where the Orangutan's live.
Through education, we can better understand the delicate creatures, and ecosystem that play a part in the global scheme of things. Classrooms, current event exhibits and all capacities of learning forums will be welcomed and needed to promote this cause in the manner it requires.
There are already efforts of this kind in full force, this page will look to strengthen this movement as a whole, but will offer a unique and in-depth perspective. There will be up-to-date news and information on demonstrations. I look forward to your support and aid.
Check out my Pinterest page and feel free to spread the message!

About the Author:
My name is Ryan Hermansen, I am a student at the University of Utah. I am in my Junior year of my studies. I enjoy a variety of activities, some of which include enjoying the outdoors in several capacities; from hiking, camping to fishing. I like to be active and participate in running events, indoor soccer and basketball. I am very curious of the world we live in because I know there are still many mysteries we do not have the answer to, and know that there is always room for improvement for the answers we think we already have. Learning is a goal and a lifestyle of mine.
