In every country of the world the number of endangered and extinct species is growing. Because we don’t know how many species there are, we can only guess at how many are endangered or extinct – at the moment scientists believe that between 50 and 150 animals and plants become extinct every day.

Poor people in this area sometimes cut down the forests for farming and to sell the timber.

Orang miskin di daerah ini kadang-kadang menebang hutan untuk pertanian dan untuk menjual kayunya.

There are not a lot of jobs in this area so many people work in the illegal logging industry.

People in other areas can read articles about illegal logging in the newspapers.

Orang di daerah lain bisa membaca artikel tentang penebangan yang ilegal di surat kabar.

Although Indonesia is only a small country (it has 1.3 per cent of the world's land area, compared to Australia’s 5.3%, it has 10 per cent of the world's flowering plant species, 12 per cent of all mammal species, 17 per cent of all reptile and amphibian species and 17 per cent of all bird species. Most of these species are found in the country's forests.


In fact, in these and other rain forests of the world (such as the Amazon) there are many species that have not yet been found, described and named. Research has shown that the burning of thousands of hectares of debris left from illegal logging causes serious health problems in people and pollution of the air and water systems. From research in the Amazon and Asia, scientists have shown that reduced amounts of forests leads to less rain in those areas and hotter air temperatures. This means that water supplies for communities and for farming are lower, and often leads to drought.


In Kalimantan, scientists estimate that the population of orangutans will halve in the next three years.


Over twenty million Indonesians depend on forests for their living. People rely on all the different parts of the industry – from cutting trees to driving trucks, from building roads to creating furniture or working in a timber mill. However, the huge amount of illegal logging is ruining the efforts of those who are trying to work in the industry legally. Illegal loggers take the oldest, rarest and most valuable trees. They do not allow time for the trees to regrow and the forest to recover. They sell the timber in huge quantities to overseas buyers and do not allow Indonesian people to benefit from the industry, keeping most of the profits for a few people.

Anda menulis artikel Anda. Environmentalist interview

Wawancara dengan ahli lingkungan

Questions: 1. Orangutans are almost extinct? Why?

1. Oranghutan hampir punah. Mengapa?

2. Where does the orangutan live?

2. Di mana oranghutan tinggal?

3. What do you do to help the orangutans?

3. Apa yang Anda lakukan untuk membantu oranghutan? 4. Bagaimana harapan untuk oranghutan pada masa depan?

4. What are the hopes for the orangutan in the future? Answers: 1. Many Indonesians are poor. Wood from the trees in the forest can be sold for a high price. Orangutans are almost extinct because the trees in the forests are being chopped down and sold. Therefore there aren’t any homes or food for the orangutan. Orangutan skulls can be sold for a high price. Baby orangutans can be sold in China and Japan as pets. 2. In the past, orangutans lived all over Asia.

1. Banyak orang Indonesia miskin. Kayu dari pohon-pohon di hutan, bisa dijual dengan harga tinggi. Oranghutan hampir punah karena pohonpohon di hutan ditebangi dan dijual. Jadi, tidak ada rumah atau makanan untuk oranghutan itu. Tengkorak oranghutan bisa dijual dengan harga tinggi. Anak oranghutan itu bisa dijual di Cina dan Jepang sebagai binatang kesayangan. 2. Pada masa lalu oranghutan tinggal di manamana di Asia. Dewasa ini oranghutan tinggal di Kalimantan dan Sumatra Utara saja.

These days the orangutans only live in Kalimantan and North Sumatra. 3. I work with the Indonesian government and environment groups, such as Greenpeace. We research the orangutans’ problems. I write reports about how to protect the orangutans. 4. Hopes aren’t good because the orangutans’ homes – their trees – are still being chopped down. These days in Indonesia’s national parks the chopping of trees is illegal. Also killing or capturing orangutans is illegal in Indonesia.

Batak farmer interview

3. Saya bekerja dengan pemerintah Indonesia dan grup-grup lingkungan, misalnya Greenpeace. Kami menyelidiki masalah-masalah oranghutan itu. Saya menulis laporan-laporan tentang bagaimana melindungi oranghutan. 4. Harapan tidak baik karena rumah oranghutan itu - pohon mereka - masih ditebang. Dewasa ini di taman nasional Indonesia menebang pohon-pohon tidak sah. Juga, membunuh atau menangkap oranghutan tidak sah di Indonesia. Wawancara dengan petani Batak

Questions: 1. Orangutans are almost extinct? Why?

1. Oranghutan di Kalimantan hampir punah. Mengapa?

2. Are there other places where Batak people can live where there are no orangutans?

2. Adakah tempat lain yang orang Batak bisa tinggal di mana tidak ada oranghutan?

3. How can the Batak people help the orangutan?

3. Bagaimana orang Batak bisa membantu oranghutan?

4. What are the hopes for the Batak people and the orangutan in the future?

4. Bagaimana harapan untuk orang Batak dan oranghutan pada masa depan?

Answers: 1. Because of transmigration, many Javanese have moved to Sumatra near the habitat of the orangutan, that is, the jungle.

1. Karena transmigrasi, banyak orang Jawa pindah ke Sumatra dekat habitasi orangutan, yaitu utan.

We chop down trees to build our homes as well as to clear land for farming. Also timber companies cut down the trees in the forest and sell them overseas.

Kami menebang pohon-pohon adalah untuk membangun rumah kami, dan juga untuk pertanian. Juga perusahaan kayu menebang pohonpohon di utan dan menjualnya pada negaranegara lain.

2. No. Batak people have always lived here. The population here is growing, but we don’t want to move.

2. Tidak. Orang Batak selalu tinggal di sini. Penduduk di sini sudah naik tetapi kami tidak mau pindah.

3. The Batak people are helping the orangutan by not cutting down new areas of forest. Also we help to look after the orangutan reserves.

3. Orang Batak membantu orangutan dengan tidak menebang di daerah utan-utan baru.

4. Because of transmigration and logging, too many trees have been cut down. In my opinion there is not much hope for the orangutans if they have no home.

Juga kami membantu menjaga daerah perlindungan orangutan. 4. Karena transmigrasi dan penebangan pohon, terlalu banyak pohon sudah ditebang.

Batak people and the transmigrants can’t agree about this land. But we won’t move.

Menurut pendapat saya harapan tidak baik untuk orangutan kalau rumah-rumahnya tidak ada. Orang Batak dan orang transmigran tidak sepakat tentang tanah ini. Tetapi kami tidak akan pindah.

Park ranger interview

Wawancara dengan penjaga taman

Questions: 1. Orangutans in Kalimantan are almost extinct? Why?


2. Why are national parks important?

2. Mengapa taman nasional penting?

3. How do park rangers help the orangutans?

3. Bagaimana penjaga taman membantu oranghutan?

4. What are the hopes for orangutans and National Parks in the future?

4. Bagaimana harapan untuk oranghutan dan taman nasional pada masa depan?

Answers: 1. Because of poverty, there are people who cut down the trees illegally to sell the timber. So the orangutans’ habitat is decreasing. Also there are hunters who catch the baby orangutans to sell.

1. Karena kemiskinan ada orang yang menebang pohon-pohon secara ilegal untuk menjual kayu-kayunya. Jadi habitasi orangutan sedang turun. Juga ada pemburu yang menangkap anak orangutan untuk menjualnya.

2. There are orangutan rehabilitation centres in the national parks. These places are really

2. Ada pusat rehabilitasi orangutan di taman nasional ini. Tempat ini bagus sekali!

good! Tourists go to the orangutan rehabilitation centres to see the baby and adult orangutans that live there.

Turis pergi ke pusat rehabilitasi orangutan untuk melihat anak orangutan dan orangutan dewasa yang dipelihara di sana.

Also, logging and hunting are banned in the national parks.

Juga, menebang pohon dan memburu binatang dilarang di taman nasional.

3. My job is to take care of the park. I look out for hunters, illegal loggers and sick animals.

3. Tugas saya menjaga taman. Saya menjaga para pemburu, penebang yang bekerja secara ilegal dan binatang yang sakit.

Sometimes I take tourists to the orangutan rehabilitation centre.

Kadang-kadang saya membawa turis ke pusat rehabilitasi oranghutan.

4. After about thirty years maybe there won’t be any forests and there won’t be any orangutans. Hopefully people from other countries won’t buy Indonesian wood which is chopped down illegally.

4. Sesudah kira-kira tiga puluh tahun mungkin tidak akan ada hutan, dan tidak akan ada oranghutan. Mudah-mudahan orang di negeri lain tidak akan membeli kayu Indonesia yang ditebang secara ilegal.

Businessman interview

Wawancara dengan pengusaha

Questions: 1. The orangutan in Kalimantan is almost extinct? Why?


2. What is your job?

2. Apakah pekerjaan Anda?

3. Where will orangutans live if there is no forest left?

3. Di mana orang akan hidup kalau kayu sudah habis?

4. Do you believe that orangutans will become extinct?

4. Apakah Anda percaya bahwa oranghutan akan menjadi punah?

Answers: 1. People say logging is destroying the orangutans’ habitat. But the farmers also burn the forest for farmland.

1. Kata orang, penebangan pohon merusakkan habitasi oranghutan. Tetapi petani juga membakar hutan untuk membuka tanah untuk pertanian.

2. My company sells Indonesian timber overseas. We have lots of local employees. The logging industry is very important in Indonesia.

2. Perusahaan saya menjual kayu-kayu Indonesia ke luar negeri. Kami ada banyak pekerja setempat. Industri penebangan pohon penting sekali di Indonesia.

3. Indonesian people are more important than orangutans. Trees must be chopped down so that the wood can be sold. The orangutans which remain must stay in the orangutan rehabilitation centres or in zoos.

3. Orang Indonesia lebih penting daripada oranghutan. Jadi, pohon harus ditebang supaya kayu bisa dijual. Oranghutan yang masih ada harus tinggal di pusat rehabilitasi oranghutan, atau di kebun binatang.

4. Yes, maybe. As time goes on more orangutans will die. But we need timber more than orangutans.

4. Ya, mungkin. Makin lama makin banyak oranghutan yang akan mati. Tetapi kita lebih perlu kayu daripada perlu oranghutan.

When coffee is grown in plantations, forests need to be clear-felled to make way for the bushes to be planted close together. The birds and insect species leave, so farmers use pesticides and chemicals to stop pests and help the coffee bushes grow.


'Shade grown coffee' refers to the practice of growing coffee bushes under a canopy of trees. This allows for greater biodiversity because there are more bird and insect habitats. When plants of different kinds and heights are grown together, the soil stays moist and healthy and does not wash away in heavy rains. Growing coffee in this way is closer to the way plants grow together in healthy forests. Logging and land clearing for farming remove the plants that hold soil together. The soil can then be blown or washed away. This ruins the land for farming. Research has shown that the burning of thousands of hectares of debris left over from logging, causes serious health problems and pollution of the air and water systems.


Orangutans do not have babies very often. The female is pregnant for eight and a half months. Female orangutans do not breed until they are about 12-15 years of age. This makes it difficult to maintain orangutan numbers. Local people are divided on the benefits of parks like Tanjung Puting National Park near their towns.


Some see that the park brings jobs through tourism and members of the community working in the park itself. Others see the park as taking away their land (that could be used for farming) and restricting their access to the forest for hunting, mining and logging. They see it as taking money away from them and leaving them in poverty. Many people do not realise the environmental benefits that the park brings. It helps to control floods, assists to control erosion, preserves clean water in streams and rivers, and provides nurseries for fish, a major source of food in the area. It is estimated that about 40% of the park has been damaged by illegal activities. Unless the © Commonwealth of Australia 2005
