We´ve started SteemIT
We aim to protect the most valuable parts of the basin of Balikpapan Bay, East Kalimantan, Indonesia. The territory adjacent to the metropolitan city of Balikpapan includes a variety of natural ecosystems - both primary and secondary tropical rain forests, mangroves, coral reefs, and shallow coastal sea - the ecosystems with the largest biodiversity. It is home to a range of endangered species of plants and animals, including the Irrawaddy dolphin, dugong, proboscis monkey, orang-utan, gibbons, Malayan sun bear, saltwater crocodile and clouded leopard.
We have only Czech websites for now, but we are going to do an English version too. A conservation project for this area was started 10 years ago with Czech primatologist, etologist and ecologist Mgr. Stan Lhota, PhD., who is a research scientists for this area and Madagascar.
There is really fresh article in English about a threat in this area:
