SAVING CRITICALLY ENDANGERED LARGE MAMMALS OF WEST MALAYSIA
by Mohd Momin Khan, Shamsul Ismin Tumin
In 1958, the then Game Department in the state of Perak were responsible for protecting wildlife and answering calls for assistance to protect crops, property and lives threatened by these animals. It was a time of plenty, with forest cover of more than 75 percent. Unfortunately, those forests were rapidly being cleared, causing wildlife species to become homeless. Moreover, solving problems often resulted in the killings of these animals. Hunting licenses were introduced, accounting for large numbers of sambar and barking deer being killed. This slaughter continued for decades, leading to a decline in the numbers of several large animal species. Due to rampant hunting, poaching, and the loss of about 30 percent of the forest species that were once common are now in dire need of saving from further decline. The need to step up conservation efforts has reached an alarming level, requiring prompt action to ensure population recovery.

Leo Africanus
by Amin Maalouf, Nicola Volland, Bettina Klingler
»Ich bin ein Sohn der Straße, meine Heimat ist die Karawane, und mein Leben ist eine Reise voller Überraschungen.« Hassan al-Wazzan, ein gebildeter junger Mann und gläubiger Muslim, bereist als Kaufmann den Maghreb und hat den großen Wunsch, nach Mekka zu pilgern. Doch es sind unruhige Zeiten in einer unruhigen Gegend, es herrschen Überfälle und Kriege. Wie aus dem Nichts taucht eines Tages eine Bande sizilianischer Piraten auf, die Hassan nach Rom verschleppen und versklaven. Er ist ein Glücksgriff für die Piraten, denn Hassans wacher Verstand und seine außergewöhnliche Klugheit machen ihn zu einem besonderen Geschenk für den mächtigsten Mann der christlichen Welt: Papst Leo X. Dieser ernennt ihn zu seinem Geographen – doch wird er dem Vatikan jemals wieder entkommen können, seine Freiheit zurückerlangen und in seine Heimat, den Maghreb, zurückkehren? »Der Geograph des Papstes« ist ein ungemein packender historischer Roman, der die ereignisreiche und hochspannende Epoche der Renaissance lebendig werden läßt.
