Aug 7, 2017 — http://www.takepart.com/article/2016/04/21/can-park-size-new-york-city-save-sumatran-rhinos-and-tigers/ Last year the Rainforest Trust raised enough money to purchase the Kluet Watershed and turn it into a reserve. The goal is to incorporate the reserve into the larger Gunung Leuser National Park. If successful, it could save the Sumatran Rhino from extinction. But the company P.T. Trinusa threatens this project with a dam they wish to build in the watershed. This will flood 443 hectares of forest and could jeopardize the entire project. We must prevent this disaster.
