Mission Statement of the Orangutan
Foundation International
 Welcome
to the
Orangutan Foundation International's (OFI) website. Inside you will
learn about the Great Red Ape and what we are doing to study and
conserve them. You will also find that you can help us make a big
difference in the survival of the endangered orangutan.
Orangutans are a species under continual
threat of extinction in the wild due to habitat loss as forests of
Borneo and Sumatra are being converted for human use.
The mission of the Orangutan Foundation
International is to support the conservation and understanding of the
orangutan and its rain forest habitat while caring for ex-captive
individuals as they make their way back to the forest.
Furthermore, OFI promotes the dissemination
of information about the orangutan and its plight in order to galvanize
the public and policy-makers towards an appreciation of the ape's value
and current dilemma so that it might be saved from extinction.
