TEROR SENAPAN ANGIN
Daniek Hendarto, APE Warrior captain, explains “Occasionally our rescue team takes in baby orangutans that have been shot. They are often sick and injured, disabled, some even deceased. On July 26, 2016, the arrest of an orangutan trafficker in Medan produced 4 baby orangutans, intended to be sold off. One of the babies, that we named Deka, was found by the Sumatran Orangutan Conservation Program team (SOCP) to have a bullet lodged in the back of her head. Deka is only a small example and one case of orangutans being showered with bullets. Help Centre for Orangutan Protection campaign against #terorsenapanangin (the terror of air rifles) that threatens the preservation of wildlife. Hunting is not a sport. Hunting is cruelty.” Daniek Hendarto, kapten APE Warrior, “Terkadang tim rescue harus mengambil bayi-bayi orangutan yang sudah terhujam peluru. Mereka Sakit, Cacat hingga bahkan sudah tak bernyawa. Pada tanggal 26 Juli 2016 dilakukan penangkapan pedagang orangutan di Medan dengan barang bukti 4 bayi orangutan yang akan diperjualbelikan. Salah satu bayi kami beri nama Deka, dari hasil pemeriksaan tim Sumatran Orangutan Conservation Programme (SOCP) dalam kepala Deka terdapat satu peluru di bagian kepala belakang. Orangutan Deka adalah contoh kecil dan catatan kasus orangutan dengan hujaman peluru. Bantu Centre for Orangutan Protection mengkampanyekan #terorsenapanangin yang mengancam kelestarian satwa liar. Berburu bukan olah raga. Berburu adalah kekejaman.”
