Mothers stay with their babies until the offspring reach an age of six or seven years !
The arms of orangutans are twice as long as their legs !
Bornean orangutans are recorded to consume at least 317 different food items and include: young leaves, shoots, seeds and bark. Insects, honey and bird eggs are also included !
