Recent fires have destroyed much of Indonesian forests and pose the latest threat to the survival of the endangered orangutans. Thirty orangutans fleeing their burning forest home have been killed by villagers, who see the animals as crop raiders(掠夺者). Orangutan mothers have been killed so that their young can be captured and sold into the illegal(非法的)wildlife pet trade. Orangutan experts continue to receive orangutan infants whose mothers have been killed while searching for food in plantations and fields.
The fires, caused by drought and coupled with fire-setting methods to clear forests, have destroyed more than two million acres. When fire gets into the rain forests’ layer of dry peat(泥炭), it can bum slowly off and on for months or years after the original fire. These fires continue until heavy rainfall soaks the peat through and through. Orangutans once numbered in the hundreds of thousands, but their population has dropped to roughly 25 000 due to fire, the destruction of forests from falling trees for timber and agriculture, and losses linked to the live-animal trade. Before the fires, only two percent of the orangutans’ original habitat remained, and now, their habitat has become even smaller.
选项
A、The forests have been burned to get land for agriculture.
B、Most of orangutans’ forests have been destroyed.
C、Mother orangutans have been sold into the live-animal business.
D、Trees have been cut down for human profits.
