Poaching Extinct Animals in Central Kalimantan
Central Borneo is an island with many kinds of beautiful animals that are real from this island. The famous animals from Central Borneo are Tingang bird and Orangutan.
Previously, there are many Tingang bird (hornbill birds) and Orangutan in Central Borneo, but now there are not many anymore. It is because of human act, sometimes human’s burn the forest that is home for the animals and the other is because of poaching animal.
Poaching animal is the second act after burning the forest. Sometimes when burning season happened, many kinds of animals died especially Tingang birds and Orangutan’s and there are small amount of them that still live.
So, they use it for poaching them, because if they have success in catching them, then they will sell them and sometimes they kill the animals and they take the feather, head, or some of the animal’s body to make become clothes and others. Then they sell it to the other countries with the expensive price because Orangutan and Tingang bird are the famous animals that are real from Central Borneo, so they can become rich people when they do this, even though this is a bad way to get money.
If this always happens, then the almost extinct animals such as Tingang bird and Orangutan will be extinct and there will be no more animals in Central Borneo, and there won’t be the famous animal anymore.
So, let’s stop poaching animal and lets the animals still life in our forest, because their life is our life too.

Central Kalimantan is the best!!! I love central Kalimantan very much.
There are so many thing that you can find in central Kalimantan.
I feel sad when people burning the jungle in central Kalimantan, because it’s destroy the number of orangutans.
The government has tried to stop the burning jungle, but it won’t work because the people have no food or money to buy the food, they just depend on their plants that they plant in their garden to supply them with food.
But the good news is there is a place where they help the orangutans who lost their homes. It’s called BOS (Borneo Orangutans Survival). So if people find orangutans they can bring them to BOS, so BOS can keep them and look after them.

What is the effect of the burning season on the people who live in central Kalimantan?
What do you think the effect of burning season?! The effect to our body is bad because of the smoke, and the smoke can make global warming. It’s also can destroy the population of orangutans, and destroy the jungle of central Kalimantan.
What do you feel? Youou feel sad right? I feel sad to when people burning the jungle in central Kalimantan.

I love Central Kalimantan very much.
There are many beautiful things in here, such as: Forests, animals, and plants.
I feel very happy because there is not much smoke and polution, because there is still many trees and clean air. Also there is not much traffic.
In Central Kalimantan there is a famost animal, it is called Orang Utan.
Orang Utan lives in Central Kalimantan’s forest.
But, there is a large number of Orangutan is died, because of Burning forest that has happened in Central Borneo. But the better thing is there is a place where they help the orangutans who have lost their homes . It’s called BOS (Borneo Orangutan Survival).
So, sometimes when people find Orangutans, they should bring them to BOS, so they can help the Orangutan’s life.

What Do you thing about the animal’s that live in Central Kalimantan’s forest if the forest is getting burned?
What do you think if it happend in front of your eyes? It’s really sad, right?
We can imagine it! It’s same as when we live in our house and someday our house is burned, where we will live. We will be a hopeless person.
The same as what Orang-utan’s feeling, they will be hopeless animals that lost their home. Not only will they have lost their homes, but they can die and their population become less and extinct.
So, if you don’t want it to happen, don’t burn our forest. Save our forest’s life, because many animals and plants are living in there, and they are very important for us.

I enjoy living in Central Kalimantan very much. There is so much rainforest and there are some amazing types of plants and animals. One of the animals that I like the most is orangutans, because they are amazing animals. There are some places where you can actually see orangutans up close.
There is also not very much pollution, because there are so many trees and not much traffic.
There is also not very much pollution, because there are so many trees and not much traffic.
Although, lots of people are cutting and burning the forest to clear land to build more houses, or they want to replace it with palm oil trees. When they do this, it is not only bad for the environment but also bad for the animals that help spread the forest. When they burn, the smoke goes into the air and it’s bad for the people who live in the society.

Person 1: What can people do to stop the burning season?
The burning season is very bad because it harms the environment by putting smoke in to the air. The people who burn the forest are usually the people who own land and want to clear the forest on it so that they can build stuff.
If people want to help stop the burning season, they could write letters to the government, or write letters in the local newspaper, telling the people how the burning season is harming the environment and the people. People could also do public education by holding public awareness campaigns for the people who live in the society. For the people who own land, they could just stop burning their own land.
