Forest Campaign

The existence of hornbills in the nature is closely related to the forest conservation. Cruising almost 100 kilometer squares, hornbills are effective seed dispersers in the forest.

PROFAUNA Indonesia's latest survey in the southern Malang area in December 2018 shows a decline in hornbill encounters by 60%. This is due to deforestation and forest degradation in the area.

PROFAUNA Indonesia has tried to apply different approach in the efforts of forest conservation and forest ecosystem restoration in Southern Malang. 

Sempu Island, located off the shore of South Malang, East Java, was established as a Nature Reserve in 1928 through Governor's Decree no.46 Stbl.1928 No. 69 of 1928

PROFAUNA Indonesia strongy opposes the possible status change of Sempu Island in Malang, East Java, from Nature Reserve into Nature Recreation Park.

PROFAUNA Borneo, is giving trainings for students in Kutai Timur regency about forest protection.
