HUNTING THE HELMETED HORNBILL ⁠
⁠
.⁠
.⁠
.⁠
Photo by @TimLaman⁠
.⁠
.⁠
.⁠
Helmeted Hornbills are poached for their casques, which are carved into luxury objects similar to elephant ivory. But these birds are treasures of avian biology – dedicated mates that risk their lives to raise their young, and denizens of the wildest rainforests left in Southeast Asia. Conservationist Yoki Hadiprakarsa and photographer Tim Laman are on a mission to tell the story of this ancient bird before it is too late.⁠

BONUS POINTS: Watch BLUEBACK today at wildlifefilms.org .
Winner will be announced on the last day of IWFF this Saturday 4/25
.
The blueback or "Quinault salmon" has long been considered the choicest of all salmon subspecies, sold at top dollar throughout the world. When their numbers began to dwindle the Quinault Nation restored vital habitat and tightly regulated the fisheries, and the blueback population began to bounce back. But in the last five years, the effects of climate change -- melting glaciers and rising water temperatures -- have recently devastated the population again. Today, there are less than 5,000 blueback left. Join the Quinault as they engage the national climate change conversation and take a stand for all of us.
