Adoption Time!!

Now is exciting time MiniMonos' staff are going to adopt a baby orangutan thanks to the 50 memberships that were purchase by us monkeys on the Island! :D However, first the staff needs OUR help between two baby orangutan, Monti Or Kesi. So first check out the full post and vote, vote, vote!! ^.^

Hey Everymonkey! 

Remember how we said we'd adopt a baby orangutan for our whole MiniMonos community if we reached our First 50 Top Banana Gold memberships?

Well now is the time for us to choose who we want to adopt!

After doing some more research we have now decided to support Orangutan Outreach to adopt our baby, for the following reasons:

• Orangutan Outreach support lots of orangutan adoption organizations so we can find out heaps from them about what is happening around the world with orangutan rescues
• They like to keep the adoption process green by handling it all online.  No paper, no envelopes, no cardboard adoption certificate.  More money for the orangutans and less waste! 
• We will get updates about our adopted baby several times a year, with photos and maybe even a video!
• Orangutan Outreach give lots of information about what we can do to help save rainforests.  We want to talk with you more about that and what we can do!

So we have 2 gorgeous orangutan babies to choose from!  Although our donation goes to the chosen orangutan we want to adopt, it also gets shared with other orangutans in the nursery or forest school she belongs to.  We think that it's great that our donation is shared with our baby's adopted brothers and sisters!

Here are the 2 orangutans for us to decide on:
Monti
At only about 6 months old, Monti is the smallest orangutan of the dozen now living at the West Kalimantan rescue center in Ketapang, Indonesia.  She was brought to the center after an anonymous caller contacted the local Ketapang forestry officers and told them some rural people had found her all alone in the jungle, but the truth is something different. She wasn't 'found' in the jungle.  She was kidnapped!







Kesi

Kesi had her hand chopped off when plantation workers killed her mother with a machete. Now she is older, and the top pupil in Orangutan Forest School at Nyaru Menteng. Champion tree-climbing and nest-builder, Kesi is an excellent role model for newly arrived orphans.








So now it's time for us all to choose!

I'm having a hard time to decide since both are adorable and cuddly to me. And they each have their own hardship as an orphan too! However, whoever ends up getting adopted is still great and I'm sure the other one would have a chance of adoption by some other great people sooner or later too! :) So how about you monkeys?? Do yo know who you voting for, maybe comment below and you might even help me and others with our decisions. So explanations why you vote for one orangutan over the other one is greatly appreciated guys! ^.^
