This Endangered Species day we revisit and celebrate the work of 2022 Finalist ✨ Hutan ✨ 🌳 The forests of the Kinabatangan floodplain in Sabah, Malaysian Borneo, are among the richest and most biodiverse in the world. They are home to the endangered Bornean orangutan, elephant, proboscis monkey, and clouded leopard. 🧍 Human activities have broken up large areas of the Kinabatangan forest into fragments. Orangutans and other wildlife are now trapped inside isolated forest patches - with no alternative other than venturing through agricultural land and villages when moving between islands of protected forest. 📚 Through thoroughly studying and monitoring the region’s biodiversity, Hutan revealed that wildlife could survive in the future if allowed to ✨ travel freely and safely ✨ between the remaining fragments of protected habitat. 🐒 Hutan create strategic wildlife corridors and to reforest degraded areas with native trees, ensuring safe passage, food and shelter to orangutans and other species.
