Local police said in addition to the shot, orangutans were also slashed many times.Most of the bullets are aimed at the head, making this action the undeniable barbaric nature.
Just last week, another orangutans were also found in a river also on the island of Borneo, Kalimantan in a state of brutal attack.The species of Borneo and Sumatran are currently organized by the International Nature Conservation Organization (IUCN) placed in a group of precious animals at risk of extinction.
Due to the severe injury, this orangutan could not survive.
This orangutan is currently ranked animals that need to be protected due to extinction.
According to IUCN, orangutans in Sumatran estimated that there were less than 15,000 individuals, while about 54,000 orangutans were said to live in Borneo.The rampant timber exploitation and the rapid development of palm oil plantations are thought to be the main agent of destroying the habitat of the orangutan, leading to unfortunate conflicts.
