Wikipedia article

This article is about an older version of DF.
A huge intelligent ape found in the tropical forests. It is bright red and found living in the trees.

Orangutans are large solitary apes beloved by dwarves for their long arms, colourful fur, and antics. Being much stronger than dwarves they can easily kill your civilians, but they usually keep their distance and are not looking to fight.

They have a decent pet value of 500, and can be domesticated with an animal trainer, but they cannot be trained as hunting or war animals. With a potential life span of eighty years they might even outlive their owner.

D4Dwarf.png This article or section has been rated D for Dwarf. It may include witty humour, not-so-witty humour, bad humour, in-jokes, pop culture references, and references to the Bay12 forums. Don't believe everything you read, and if you miss some of the references, don't worry. It was inevitable.


It should be noted that some orangutans have shown extreme aggression towards dwarves who refer to them as monkeys, as they are actually apes. Also they apparently make good librarians.

Just as goblins are reviled by dwarves for kidnapping their young (among other things), human villagers are openly suspicious of any orangutan nobles snooping about - perhaps if the orangutan "civilization" had any goods to offer in trade for the invention of fire, they would be open to discuss parting with a "man-cub." Dwarves, on the other hand, would never claim to have invented fire, knowing that it is a gift of Armok; nevertheless, lessons on the subject are made available to those who ask for it.
