non-fiction lesson 1

3.) I think the writer organzed or explained it like that os that it will be esayer to show who is it mainly about and who is the writer trying to save or help, I think it is really important.

4.) The deatails that show Galdikas are more motived, because they can see that there was 180,000 orangutans band now there are 27,000 orangutans left they can also see that the orangutans are being sold or eaten so they are trying to let more off-spring be born and mabey the population will go up  in a period of time.

5.) orangutans have needs and so do we like this food,water,shelter,and love these are all basic needs. The worse thing that can happend is that little animal doesn't have any of those basic needs.So this should send a message to the people do not harm these monkeys ,because you do not want some one to harm you SO STOP IT NOW! and leave the ORANGUTANS  alone.

MY ANSWER TO THE QUESTION

I think why the orangutans are threatened with extinction, because they are valuable animals and now they are really rare types of monkeys.Also most poeple do not care about about thier habtits they (locals,vistors) want to build homes and other new things.So this is what I think about the extinction.
