HORNBILLS DISCOVER ACT NOW! DIARY MEDIA
  What?
  Where?
  Why?

 

 
  Belum-Temengor spans approximately 266,000 ha and totaling up to almost 4 times the size of Singapore when combined with the Hala Bala National Park in Thailand; north of the Belum Forest Reserve. This immense space of rich and diverse tropical rainforest provides a safe haven for the hornbills and other wildlife that reside within its enclosure.

Hornbills found in Belum-Temengor can grow up to about 120 cm in size and are dependent on the tropical rainforests as a source of life. These large sized birds require immense spaces - large trees for nesting and shelter, watering holes and a diverse forest to feed off; without which, the dwindling trend of their population will surely continue.
