<P><B>An illegal animal skull trade has been uncovered in
Indonesia.</B> Tourists are taking bones from orangutans and gibbons
out of the country in their airplane luggage.</P>
<P>A lot of the species that are being traded are endangered.
Unsuspecting tourists may not know this, and may be buying skulls on
sale and unintentionally <B>contributing to the hunting of animals
for profit.</B></P>
<P><B>There is already a law banning the trade, but airlines aren’t
honouring it.</B> That’s where we come in. Indonesia’s busiest
tourism time is the middle of the year, so let’s ramp up the
pressure on airlines now and get bans in place.</P>

target=_blank>Emirates, American Airlines and Qantas: protect
orangutans and gibbons and ban animal skulls in luggage.</A></P>
<P>On the Hindu island of Bali <B>primates have a sacred status</B>.
They’re worshipped and revered. As a result most primates in
Indonesia are legally protected. <B>They’re not allowed to be
caught, transported or traded, whether they are dead or
alive.</B></P>
<P>But this illegal wildlife trade of animal skulls has increased
over the last decade.</P>

Qantas: help protect endangered animals and ban wildlife skulls in

<P>Thanks to the Ekō community, major <B>airline TUI has banned

Let’s do it again and <B>help protect endangered species</B> like
orangutans and gibbons in Indonesia.</P><IMG alt=""
