This coming January, BNF will feature in BBC’s new series ‘Earth’s Tropical Islands’. The 3-part tv series, airing from 1 – 3 January 2020, explores some of the world’s most isolated and iconic tropical islands – Madagascar, Borneo and Hawaii.
The second episode, broadcast on 2 January, will take you on a journey through Borneo’s varied habitats, revealing a staggering diversity of life. During the episode, you will see two familiar faces, Twenti and Santi from the BNF Field Team. Follow them through Natural Laboratory of Peat-swamp Forest (LAHG), a special zone within the Sebangau National Park as they reveal an incredible orangutan discovery by BNF researchers.
Take a first peek at the Borneo episode below (the video can only be viewed from the UK):
BNF UK Co-Directors, Dr Helen Morrogh-Bernard and Simon Husson, have also written an article about orangutan conservation and sustainable palm oil to accompany the series. Read more on the BBC website here.
