Conservation meets art appreciation for the future of our planet. The true story of the birth of Pongos Helping Pongos: Paintings by Orangutans for Orangutans.
What started as simple enrichment for an overactive orangutan living in the big bustling city of Houston, Texas, turned into something much bigger than imagined. Find out how Luna, the orangutan, is helping to save her species, Pongo pygmaeus, from the brink of extinction. Living in the zoo, Luna bridges the gap between us and orangutans in the rainforests of Borneo. She proves how much like us they really are and challenges what was once the definition of man... "the tool user".
