Sitting like a king with his harem, this impressive visage was being gawked at by dozens of zoo visitors (myself included) but he paid special interest to those with larger cameras. He too seemed to know he was being put in a situation where he had no control and no love of being in. In the eyes of these animals you can see people with the same heart and mind and soul as we have, people in cages on display, prisoners for the amusement of the masses. I’d never seen a Sumatran orangutan before and the odds of me ever seeing one naturally are a billion to one since they are rare and neither of us travel abroad. :-) So, was it worth pain, anger, or look of resignation in these eyes for me to bring this photograph to you? Actually, I believe the answer is yes – here. The Primates group is a set of people interested in primates as something more than ‘lesser animals’ we can hold to force breeding with our magnanimous gift of safety if they do it in public. As long as this remains so, my images of Sumatran orangutans will remain in Red Bubble.

Sumatran Orangutan (Pongo abelii)-Unlike Bornean Orangutans, Sumatrans are more frugivorous and insectivorous (eat fruits and insects) and rarely feed on the inner bark of trees. They are known to use tools, such as sticks, to help ‘catch’ bugs in trees and to eat fruit. All orangutans are threatened to be extinct within ten years if their natural habitat is continually cut down in order to plant palm oil plantations. A few companies have begun reharvesting over old crops in order to conserve rainforest and they create sustainable palm oil (which is found in many products that are used everyday). For more information check out this website: www.cmzoo.org/conservation/palmOilCrisis/ .

Recently, Derwent came out with a new product called Tinted Charcoal. They took charcoal and mixed it with clay pigments to produce a slight color. This is my first drawing using this new product, and even with the limited palette (19 colors not counting black, white and grays), I really like it. The colors I used in this drawing are actually the most vibrant – most are dark blues and greens. The pencils act and feel like charcoal. I used my standard smooth bristol paper, 17”x14”. This animal is the Sumatran tiger, the second most endangered tiger subspecies with fewer than 500 individuals left in the wild. One of the smaller subspecies, they have a larger mane than the others, particularly the males, whose manes may actually continue below the chin almost like a lion. I plan to donate a portion of money from sales to Save the Tiger Fund.

This is Tuan the Sumatran Tiger. He lives at Adelaide Zoo and is one of 3 Sumatran Tigers housed there. I was lucky enough to attend a behind-the-scenes tour at the zoo where we got to get up close and personal with these amazing animals. Taken with Panasonic Lumix TZ3

Sumatran Tiger Melbourne Zoo / The Sumatran Tiger (Panthera tigris sumatrae) is the smallest tiger of the species and is currently listed as critically endangered. Tigers are often sought for their fur and various body parts, which are used for their supposed medicinal properties. They are also in danger as their natural habitat gets cleared out and the space used for agriculture and development. It is estimated that there are only about 350-400 Sumatran Tigers left in the wild. Nikon D300; Nikkor 80-400mm ED VR

The Siberian tiger (Panthera tigris altaica) is also known as the Amur, Manchurian, Altaic, Korean, North China or Ussuri tiger. Though it once ranged throughout Western and Central Asia and eastern Russia, it is now completely confined to the Amur-Ussuri region of Primorsky Krai and Khabarovsk Krai in far eastern Siberia, where it is now protected. It is the biggest of the eight recent tiger subspecies and the largest living felid. Genetic research in 2009 revealed that the current Siberian tiger population is almost identical to the Caspian tiger, a now extinct western population once thought to have been a distinct subspecies.

The orangutans or orangutangs (Pongo) are one of four living genera of great apes. Known for their intelligence, they live in trees and are the largest living arboreal animals. They have longer arms than other great apes, and their hair is typically reddish-brown, instead of the brown or black hair typical of other great apes. Native to Indonesia and Malaysia, they are currently found only in rainforests on the islands of Borneo and Sumatra, though fossils have been found in Java, the Thai-Malay Peninsula, Vietnam and China. There are only two surviving species, both of which are endangered: the Bornean Orangutan (Pongo pygmaeus) and the critically endangered Sumatran Orangutan (Pongo abelii). The subfamily Ponginae also includes the extinct genera Gigantopithecus and Sivapithecus.
