Nice nature and wildlife haiku, Reason. I was thinking Sumatran tigers being orange, as well as orangutans. Congrats for your win ~ John

thanks, John. I appreciate your thoughts re my haiku. I had viewed a pic in which the hair on the orangutans was standing up like an electrical current flowing through it.

thanks, Caren. Inspired by a picture; but I liked the word play on orange and orangutan. Glad you liked it.
