Bornean Pygmy elephant (Elephas maximus borneensis) family, parents with calf. Danum Valley Conservation Area, Sabah, North Borneo, Malaysia. The Bornean pygmy elephants are found only in the northeast tip of Borneo, in the Malaysian state of Sabah. In June 2005 a team of the Sabah Wildlife Department in Malaysia and WWFšs Borneo office were collaring five Bornean Pygmy elephants. It was the first time anyone has ever studied Borneos elephants. It will be the largest study ever done to track Asian elephants via satellite. It was not until 2003 that the Bornean Pygmy elephant had been scientifically recognized as a sub-species in 2003.

More than a hundred Greenpeace activists and supporters from Surabaya, Semarang, Bandung and Jakarta rallied in Indonesia s capital in support of President Yudhoyono s international commitment to reduce the country s carbon emissions. The activists are calling on Mr Yudhoyono to fulfill his promise by halting deforestation. Indonesia is the 3rd biggest emmitter of greenhouse gases, after the United States and China, mainly due to forest destruction. The rally comes over three weeks after Greenpeace opened its Climate Defenders Camp in the Kampar Peninsula, in Sumatra¹s province of Riau, with strong support from local communities, to highlight the destruction of Indonesia s peatland forests. Last weekend the local community rallied around Greenpeace and stopped a police operation to remove the activists and the camp. ©Greenpeace
