REPORTAGE - Orang-Utan Station auf Sumatra
SOCP team leave the Jambi release site after successfully releasing orangutans. Orangutan populations are in rapid decline in both Sumatra and Borneo due to increasing habitat loss and fragmentation. One tool being employed by the SOCP to address this is the reintroduction to the wild of confiscated ex-captive orangutans. The goal is to establish entirely new genetically viable, self-sustaining wild populations of this Critically Endangered species, as a ‘safety net’, should catastrophe befall the remaining naturally wild populations in Sumatra. Two such new populations are being established, one in the Bukit Tigapuluh National Park in Jambi province and one in Jantho. Both sites lie within the historical range of the species but outside its current distribution, and both are legally protected under Indonesian law.© Charlie Dailey / eyevine

Devastating views of the Tripa region where Palm Oil Planation companies log, burn and cut canals to drain the peat land of the lowland swamps of the protected Leuser ecosystem to clear the land illegally to plant palm oil plantations. The forests & peat swamps of Indonesia that sequester so much of the worlds carbon become carbon bombs, exploding vast stores on carbon into the atmosphere once logged and burnt.

The resued mother and baby orang-utan are released into their new home. The mother and infant orang-utan, Charlie and Cantik, were translocated from a high risk area in Tripa peat swamps where they were hemmed in by palm oil plantations, to a safe forest and new population of orangutans in Janto, northern Sumatra. They now enter a viable new satellite breeding population of 100 orangutans. Orangutan populations are in rapid decline in both Sumatra and Borneo due to increasing habitat loss and fragmentation.

NEWS - Calais: Verlassenes 'Jungle Camp'
Empty, barren and bleak: this wasteland is all that remains of the Jungle migrant camp in Calais. Bulldozers have flattened the vast shanty town, which was home to thousands of people hoping to reach the UK before a mass evacuation began three weeks ago today. Once a bustling sprawl of makeshift shops, huts, tents, community centres, places of worship and a theatre, the land is now eerily empty. A road surrounding it, once the scene of daily clashes between police firing tear gas and rock-throwing migrants, is now guarded by a single police van. The main track through the camp is a mudflat strewn with saucepans, food tins, beer cans, plastic bottles, clothes and shoes. It used to be lined with restaurants and shops, and groups of migrants gathered around camp fires.

The ugly Mutt that needs a home, Britain - Jun 2008
No National Newspapers before 29 Jun 2008

Annabel Pottle of the Ardley Rescue Kennels in Oxfordshire Has a Real Job on Her Hands to Rehome a Dog as Ugly as Wendlebury. The Dogue De Bordeaux Dog was Found Living Rough in the Picturesque Village of Wendlebury, Oxfordshire But Avoided Capture for Four Days Before Plucky Annabel Managed to Catch Him.
Britain's Ugliest Dog Seeks A Home
BRITAIN'S UGLIEST DOG SEEKS A HOME
It's a face only a mother could love - hang-dog hound Wendle couldn't find a home because he is so UGLY.
The 9st Dogue de Bordeaux, two, was found living rough in a field about six weeks ago and taken to an animal rescue centre.
He was fed back to health at the Ardley Centre in Bicester, Oxfordshire, but prospective owners were hard to find thanks to his ugly features.
Thankfully, a national news story highlighting the case of Britain's "ugliest" dog has resulted in more than 300 people seeking to adopt Wendle.
Annabelle Pottle, who has owned the rescue kennels for 11 years, said: "I know he is not exactly pretty, but I personally think he is rather beautiful. He is a real character and makes everyone here laugh."
Ms Pottle added: "We had a call from a couple from the Midlands who came to see Wendle yesterday. They are keen to home him.
"They have had a similar breed before. We will now carry out a home and vet check next week, before we decide if they can take him home."
