Trouble Right Here in River City

Bornean  Orangutan
       In Borneo, palm-oil plantations
       replace the jungle homes of
       orangutans.  Mercury and silt
       from gold mines pollute rivers.












Wildebeest




                       Plastic bags litter part of the
                       Serengeti and cattle graze on
                       grasses that the great migrating
                       herds of wildebeests have
                       depended on for centuries.










Sifica


          Madagascar has lost 85% of the
          forests, lost to farmland and for
          charcoal to cook food.  Where are
          indigenous lemurs supposed to live?
