The camera traps we've set up all around Harapan Rainforest allow us to see a side of the forest we would find it hard to see otherwise. The area is full of wonderful wildlife, but much of it is elusive and with Harapan covering a huge area, keeping track of the wildlife that calls Harapan home is tricky.
The latest success we've had with the camera traps is capturing some brilliant images of our resident elephants. This is the first time we've managed to capture them on camera, and the pictures were taken close in to the centre of Harapan, somewhere we've never seen the elephants before so it's all very exciting!
Unfortunately, the elephants don't seem as thrilled as we are. They're really not keen on the flash that the cameras make so they wrenched the camera off the tree and destroyed it! The memory card with the images on was recovered from the smashed wreckage.
