The Sumatran elephant or its Latin Elephas maximus sumatrensis is highly endangered throughout their reach, large-scale forest conversion and human conflict and ivory hunting, the above factors are the cause of the declining quality of the environment itself, thus limiting the distribution of the elephant population in Sumatra. These large mammals are heavily dependent on wide habitat areas according to their food demands, the Sumatran elephants are particularly vulnerable to the effects of habitat transformation. Habitat transformation or forest clearing into gardens is the most serious problem on the island of Sumatra, whereas with the presence of elephant animals it is expected to contribute to preserving the proportion of the population significant representation of ecosystems and biodiversity on the island of Sumatra but elephants function ecologically and ecologically important from the conservation side. This reality is far from reality, where elephant animals and their habitats are minimized by the presence of Government policies to continue transforming forests into gardens, many examples of settlements clearing land and roads under the pretext of improving regional and national economies. This policy can be seen in the District and Provincial Governments, legally referred to as a cultivation area or other user area, and access to forest areas that are easy to permit in mining and road area borrowing schemes, limited production and limited production forest areas, here is the problem of elephant conservation.
I would LOVE to photography elephants in the wild!!!!!
