I just received the news that Animal Planet has cancelled plans for a 3rd season & will not make a DVD for season 2.
Do not give up on the orangutan's fight for survival because of one series. The BBC has a successful series, Orangutan Diaries, which hopefully will show on our channels in the future. There are also DVDs of the show. Buying them helps support the cause. At this time, they are in region 2 format (U.S. is region 1). Hopefully they will include us in the future.
I also understand some of the newer DVD players support both formats. It's worth it to get a new one (less than $100) to help keep getting the word out about the orangs plight.
What a shame! This is a terrible mistake. Why are they cancelling it at a time when animals most need our help? I could do with a few less shows about dogs and a few more about ALL the animals in the wild kingdom.
I can't believe this!!! I AM really upset! This is the only show I look forward to watching each week. These apes are like family, children... and yes, there were more donations because of this show. What is the reason for cancellation? Does anyone know an address we can e-mail or write to with our opinions. Let's get the show back on for Lone and our friends!!
