Prime orangutan habitats are in the mature, lowland forests. The great apes thrive in the peat-swamp forests of poorly drained river basins, and in valley-bottom forests along rivers. Orangutans also live in dry forests that cover the foothills of mountains. But the apes do not extend far up mountainsides. They rarely live above 500 metres (1,640 feet) elevation on Borneo and above 1,000 metres (3,300 feet) on Sumatra.
