Borneo, Malaysia is a biodiversity hotspot, treasured by people all around the world for its abundance of wildlife, including orangutans. For four years, the Smithsonian Institution, UW-Madison student Olivia Cosby, and the Sarawak Forestry Corporation conducted wildlife surveys in Lanjak Entimau Wildlife Sanctuary. Local men from the longhouse communities were hired to act as research assistances, doing much of the camera trapping.
