We know that the animals and birds in Harapan Rainforest are important for moving seeds around the forest. Hornbills fly for miles across the forest canopy, taking with them the seeds of fruit they have eaten. We want to find out which animals and birds eat what types of seed. This will help us as we restore the forest. If we plant species that have fruit they are keen to eat, it will attract more wildlife into the planted areas bringing seeds from other parts of the forest with them. To find out what they eat, we collect bird and animal droppings whenever we can, take the seeds out, and try to grow them in our nursery. If successful, we can identify the plants and can tell, for example, that the rhinoceros hornbill likes to eat the fruits of the strangler fig. This photo shows plants growing from seeds collected from bear droppings.
