August Wallpaper

Orangutans are the world’s largest tree-dwelling animals, spending most of their lives high in the rainforest canopy. A young orangutan peering out from the forest offers a glimpse into this extraordinary world.  

But across Borneo and Sumatra, habitat loss and fragmentation are shrinking the forests they call home. This is driving steep population declines and leaving all three species of orangutans, which are now critically endangered, at risk.  

WWF is working to protect and restore these vital forests, from replanting degraded land and creating wildlife corridors, to helping improve sustainable palm oil production and supporting communities to live alongside wildlife.  

This month’s wallpaper marks World Orangutan Day on 19 August and is a thank you for your support in helping protect these incredible animals and the forests they depend on.
