KOTA KINABALU: Non-governmental organisation Bringing Back Our Rare Animals (Bora) has won the inaugural The Hornbill Award competition organised by Climate Governance Malaysia (CGM), beating five other finalists but pledging to share some of its winnings with them. "However, one of the finalists just graciously said it’s best Bora keeps the funds. This involves the removal of weeds as well as planting figs and nutritious grass species, Payne added. “RM6,000 will be used for supplies such as organic fertiliser, mineral blocks and small equipment, while the remaining RM13,000 is for Bora's running costs including our office and on-site vehicle at Tabin,” Payne said. He thanked all Bora supporters who backed this idea of targeted intervention to support endangered wildlife through attention to diet, habitat expansion and reproductive health.
