Meet the proboscis monkey, Borneo's long-nosed primate and one of nature's most distinctive faces. Males develop large, pendelous noses that act as resonating chambers, amplifying their calls to impress females and warn rivals. These expressive primates are endemic to Borneo's mangrove forests and riverbanks, where their size, sound, and unmistakable profile make them unforgettable. ⁠

Few birds build quite like a Baya Weaver. Using long strips of grass and leaves, males weave elaborate hanging nests one strand at a time, often suspended from the ends of branches. Before the nest is complete, the male begins displaying to passing females. A female will inspect both the nest and its builder before choosing a mate. Once she accepts, he completes the structure, including the distinctive entrance tunnel leading to the nesting chamber.

Found throughout the rainforests of Southeast Asia, the rhinoceros hornbill is easy to spot thanks to the large casque sitting on top of its bill. It feeds mostly on fruit, helping to spread seeds throughout the forest. In Sarawak, the "Land of the Hornbills," this species holds special cultural significance for the Dayak people and is seen as a symbol of good fortune.

Bornean bearded pigs are found throughout the rainforests of the Malay Peninsula, Sumatra, and Borneo. Adults grow to 122–150 cm in length and weigh between 57 and 120 kg. They are the only wild pig species known to undertake large scale seasonal migrations, sometimes travelling hundreds of kilometres in search of food. Opportunistic feeders, they're often seen following macaques to snack on fruit dropped from the trees.

The Great Argus is native to the rainforests of the Malay Peninsula, Borneo, and Sumatra. Its name comes from Argus, the hundred eyed giant of Greek mythology, inspired by the striking eye like patterns across its wings and tail. The male is the largest of all pheasants and grows some of the longest tail feathers of any wild bird, reaching over 1.5 metres. During courtship, he clears a patch of forest floor before raising his tail, fanning his wings, and stomping in an extraordinary display to impress a female.

Sun bears are the smallest bear species, measuring 1 to 1.5 meters in height and averaging around 45 kg in weight. They are also the second rarest bear species, after the giant panda. Native to the tropical lowland forests of Southeast Asia, sun bears are robust, agile, and well-adapted for climbing. Their unique features, including inward-turned front feet, large paws, flattened chest, and strongly curved claws, make them exceptionally skilled climbers. As the most arboreal of all bear species, sun bears spend the majority of their time foraging, resting, and navigating through trees.⁠

While they are mostly known for their pendulous noses and bulging bellies, proboscis monkeys also have long tails that reach nearly the same length as their body, an average of around 70cm in males and 55cm in females. Their long tails help them balance while leaping through trees. ⁠

The Bornean Elephant is the smallest Asian elephant subspecies and the largest mammal on Borneo, standing under 2.5 meters tall. Unlike their African relatives, which can reach up to 4 meters, Bornean elephants are much smaller. They are critically endangered, with only about 1,500 individuals left in the wild, mainly in Sabah. These elephants live in a matriarchal society led by the oldest female, who guides the herd and helps the young learn essential survival skills.⁠
