Mr. Robert Ewers from the Royal College of London, who is also in charge of the Borneo Tropical Forest Conservation Project, said: "We were surprised to see the number of Borneo bees available on the island. Borneo was heavily exploited for commercial purposes, but in theory, wild animals like Borneo will not be able to survive in such an invasive environment by humans. This image has confirmed that even large predators such as pink panther are able to survive in the penetrated forest environment. '
