ANIMALS AND PLANTS ORANGUTAN LENGTH: Up to 4½ft (14m) WEIGHT: Up to (80kg) 176lb DIET: Fruit, eggs, insects FUN FACT: An orangutan's armspan is longer than their height, which helps them reach for branches while climbing. Orangutans are the largest tree-dwelling animals on Earth, but older males are too heavy to climb very high, so spend most of their time on the forest floor. PYGMY ELEPHANT LENGTH: Up to (2.8m) 9¼ft WEIGHT: Up to (3,200kg) 7,000lb. DIET: Grass, leaves, fruit FUN FACT: The pygmy elephant is the smallest elephant on Eartn. They're only found in the forests of Borneo.
RAFFLESIA At (1m) 3ft wide, the rafflesia is the largest flower in the world. It's also known as the "corpse lily" because it smells like rotten flesh. It only flowers for a few days a year. DURIAN FRUIT Known as "The King of Fruits," durian is so smelly that it's banned on public transportation in parts of Asia. However, despite the smell, many people love its strong flavor. PITCHER PLANT The pitcher plant's leaves are shaped like a tube and filled with nectar. Insects drawn to the nectar need to be careful because the rim of the plant is slippery, and if they fall in they will drown in a pool of liquid.
