The restoration teams in Sumatra always prepare a contingency of extra seedlings when stocking the tree nurseries, and the photo above shows one of the reasons for doing this. The seedlings in the foreground are all squashed because an elephant stood on them, so are now unlikely to survive if planted out in the site. On the plus side, it's always good to know there are amazing mammals like that so nearby and that they will benefit from the restoration process!
Thank you for continuing to support this work. Your donations ensure the team have all the tools and time they need to keep seedlings growing healthy and strong to create new rainforest.
