Orangutans, the "man of the forest," are fruit-eaters, primarily relying on trees like figs, which are widely scattered. They must cover large forest areas to find enough food, and few trees can feed more than one or two orangutans, which is why they can't live in large groups. Despite their weight, orangutans spend most of their time in the trees, making them the world's largest arboreal mammal.

🌿🐘 Breaking News: Bornean Elephants Officially Recognised as a Subspecies of the Asian Elephant by IUCN! 🐘🌿

Sabah is the proud home of the largest population of the newly recognised Bornean elephant (Elephas maximus borneensis). These incredible creatures are not just any elephants; they are a unique subspecies of the Asian elephant and an Evolutionarily Significant Unit, distinct from their mainland relatives. The subspecies is now officially classified as ‘Endangered’ by the IUCN Red List due to its small and declining population which poses a very high risk of extinction in the wild.

🗣️ Dr. Cheryl Cheah, our elephant expert at WWF-Malaysia, states: "As an Evolutionarily Significant Unit, Bornean elephants are morphologically and genetically distinct from mainland Asian elephants, rendering them unique to the island of Borneo and part of our natural heritage. Their classification as 'Endangered' underscores the urgency of collaborative conservation actions such as the management of human-elephant conflict and the prevention of further habitat loss and fragmentation - both of which are crucial for safeguarding their future survival."

🌿🌟 Uniquely Different: Genetic studies reveal that Bornean elephants hail from an ancient lineage with a long history of isolation. These majestic beings, likely originating from a small female population, stand out with their relatively small size, larger ears, longer tails, and round bodies.

🔬📚 Fascinating Findings: Recent research shows that Bornean elephant skulls possess unique features like a shallower forehead and narrower nasal opening, making them distinct from their Sumatran and mainland Asian cousins.

🚨 The urgency is real. Join us in our mission to protect these magnificent creatures and preserve our natural heritage through dedicated conservation efforts and a holistic living landscapes approach. Your support is crucial for their future! Help protect our Bornean elephants, visit wwf.org.my/elephant
