Bevan,
Thanks for bringing this to our attention.  You are not alone in your
thoughts I was talking about this to a few friends that have just come back
from Indonesia and the situation is indeed very serious it brings tears to
your eyes.  I have heard that local radio in parts of indonesia are
reported to be alerting people not to shoot the primates and tigers as they
come out of the forest.  One has to admit that when it gets to this level
we are in serious trouble.


Regards
Tony
