So little time left

Indonesia's rainforests are being decimated leaving the last remaining Indonesian elephants, orangutans, tigers and rhinoceros teetering on the verge of disappearing from the Earth forever.
COVID19 had a devastating impact on conservation efforts worldwide. The last few years saw a significant increase in poaching and illegal activities in part caused by the collapse of the tourism industry. 

Now more than ever we need your support to help us continue our wildlife and habitat projects.

Elephant Food Farm


Way Kambas Elephant Conservation Centre is planning to establish a farm to provide tasty, nutritious foods to 70 captive elephants. However, the entire food budget (provided by the Indonesian government) will be used establishing the farm.  There is no budget to cover cost of food during the 6 month establishment period.
This means elephants will only be eating Alang Alang grass of low nutritional value.
We need to feed the elephants during this short term period, while a range of good foods are growing on the farm.
SIES asks your help to feed the elephants?  Please give to our campaign for Sumatran elephants?

​Foster a Forest
.
Each month your ‘Foster a Forest’ contribution
will fund the secure protection of more and more forest in Borneo and Sumatra for critically endangered wildlife, which are close to extinction.

For $20 per month (4 cups of coffee) your contribution will be regenerating and protecting an acre of forest. Calculation based on Way Kambas National Park in Lampung province, Southern Sumatra, where we are regenerating and protecting 300km2 (74,000 acres) and employing 150 poor local villagers at cost $45,000 per year.

A contribution of $20/month pays for 400 acres of forest every year.

Indonesia's amazing diversity and critical importance to the world

More than 17,500 islands sprawl along the Equator making up the Archipelago of Indonesia. The archipelago stretches from the Indian Ocean to the Pacific and bridges the continents of Asia and Australia. The islands are grouped in regions and known as the Greater Sunda, Lesser Sunda and Maluku Islands and Irian Jaya. The habitats are  unique and incredibly diverse -  from hot, steamy tropical rainforests to dry savannah; from towering mountains such as Mandala Top at 4,600 metres (15,300 feet)  in Irian Jaya, which is perpetually snow capped, to the plunging depths of the sea around Sulawesi and Maluku where the sea is 4,500metres (15,000 feet) deep.  The country is mountainous with over 400 volcanos and covers 1.9 square kilometres. However by far the biggest area of Indonesia is covered by sea. 7.9 million square kilometres of sea make up 81% of Indonesia's total area. The marine life is rich and diverse with thousands of coral reefs surrounding many of the islands.

Indonesia has:
  • 1,615 Bird Species  which is 17% of the species in the whole world. 132 of those species are under threat. Iconic species include hornbills and birds-of-paradise (Source: Birdlife International)
  • 667 mammals - which is 12% of the world's mammals and the highest country population in the world. Iconic species include the orangutan, tiger, rhinoceros and elephant  (Source: World Conservation Monitoring Centre United Nations (UNEP)
  • Over 1,100 species of amphibians and 2,000 species of reptiles making up 16% of the worlds amphibian and reptile populations
  • 8,000 species of fish
  • 250,000 species of insects

Indonesia leads the world in Endemism - species that are only found in that country and is one of the key Megadiversity centres in the world.

We would love your support.
