Huge Pythons Burnt To Death And Orangutans Suffer Respiratory Problems Due To Haze
BY TAMARA JAYNE — 19 SEP 2019
It is not just humans who suffer.
  • Let's be frank, we are sick of this haze.
    The worrying air pollutant levels in Malaysia has led to schools closing, ill bodies, and horrible weather conditions.
    • It has become so bad that the National Disaster Management Agency (NADMA) released a statement on Tuesday, 17 September, that a haze emergency will be declared when the Air Pollutant Index (API) exceeds 500.

  • So you can only imagine the conditions in Indonesia's Kalimantan forest, as orangutans suffer respiratory problems from the toxic haze
    • On 17 September, animal welfare group Borneo Orangutan Survival Foundation said that the haze has affected hundreds of apes in its rescue centres.

      "The thick smoke does not only endanger the health of our staff... but also it affects the 355 orangutans we currently care for", the foundation said, according to Malay Mail.

      About 37 orangutans have contracted mild respiratory infections.

  • In addition, huge pythons were recently found burnt to death by local residents fighting the forest fires
    • Python carcasses, measuring up to 10-metre long and 20-centimetre in diameter, were found, according to animal welfare CAN Borneo.

      On 13 September, locals dragged out the carcasses at a forest in Baamang Tengah in Central Kalimantan.

    • The Facebook post revealed that pythons of this size are able to swallow goats and cows.

      Some of the helpless reptiles were even found with their mouths open wide having suffered an undeserving death.

My poor Orang utan brudders....they should come over to Mandai zoo and be FTs in Singapore. :biggrin:

And that python... wahsay! BBQed! :biggrin:

Very sad to see those innocent animals habitat destroyed...again by human beings. Well aware not just palm oil but other plantation involved too. For a start, BAN palm oil.:poop:
 
Pslm oil is the magic plant that took millions out of poverty. Destroy that and these farmers and plantations will have to seek alternatives. Many plantation workers will be sacked.

Tat the problem with their mentality. See wat happen when oil slump? Never put all eggs in one basket. And dont look down on other stuffs which can be planted. U tink chilli, onion, etc etc is cheap? Greed....U destroy other crops and replaced with palm....pity those animals. Next thing u know they start planting more and more durians cos china importing it:rolleyes:

Iq and race like wat a bro here says. Such A simple solution. Oil palm benefits many n the oil is a healthy alternative. Why don't enforce proper land clearance procedures instead?

The laws are there, the issue is enforcement. Indonesia is a very very very big country.

Just like their law on corruption. But little effect. Should introduce sharia law.:sneaky: Then u will see those tycoon sponsoring protest and demo. Just like wat happened in HK.
