Environment Indonesia said elephants in Aceh province are threatened with extinction following the rampant murder of protected animals.
Changes in forest functions under the pretext of development make the habitat of elephants in Aceh increasingly narrow, thus threatening the population of these protected animals.
The threat of extinction of elephant populations occurs due to ivory hunting. Many elephants have been killed and tusks have been taken for the last few years.
If this problem continues to be allowed, natural resources will conflict with practice in the field, so the extinction of animals is just a matter of time.
