Climate change drives Indonesia’s rarest orangutan to brink of extinction
JAKARTA: Landslides driven by climate change in Sumatra, Indonesia last year alone wiped out 7 percent of the Tapanuli orangutan population, new research shows, as scientists warn of an increased risk of extinction for one of the world’s rarest great apes. Cyclone Senyar ravaged northern Sumatra in November, causing catastrophic floods and landslides that killed more than 1,200 people and damaged more than 180,000 houses in three provinces, with environmental groups blaming the extent of the damage on rapid deforestation.
