Born of Fire
+Born from fire millions of years ago, Sulawesi remains one of Earth’s most active volcanic regions but also full of biodiversity. From babirusas feasting around mineral-rich springs to birds incubating eggs with geothermal heat, life here is shaped by volcanoes — even as eruptions continue to destroy and renew the landscape.

+In Sumatra’s rainforest, the last island elephants and fewer than 100 Sumatran rhinos survive, threatened by habitat loss and human conflict. Rangers protect herds and rescue calves.
