Orangutans have a distinctive appearance that sets them apart. They have long, shaggy reddish-brown fur that covers their bodies, giving them a beautiful and unique appearance. Their faces are characterized by round, expressive eyes, a broad nose, and prominent cheek pads called flanges in adult males. These cheek pads give them a mature and distinguished look. Orangutans also have long arms and strong hands, perfectly adapted for life in the trees.Â
