Flowing from the heart of Borneo, the Kinabatangan River is a cornucopia of life. From deep within mountains, to its ultimate meeting with the sea. Borneo stands at a triple junction of three tectonic plates, and at the crossroads of two oceans. The river is home to 50 mammal species, 200 types of bird, and countless insects. Fuelled by yearly monsoons, at its headwaters, mountains have sustained wet tropical forests. In the floodplains below, strange and more unexpected life inhabits the dense jungle. Beyond lie tangled mangroves nursing the next generation of marine creatures. Finally, at the cusp of the Sulu Sea the journey begins again. In the tropical warmth, moisture evaporates, rises to form clouds, and on mountain ranges rain falls again.—WildBear Entertainment
[PART 1 - Land of Flying Snakes] Due to changing sea levels, Borneo has regularly been connected by land to nearby Malay/ Indonesian areas, resulting in a varied, often unique mix of wildlife adapted to its largely pristine landscapes, mainly jungle, half of which comprises the world's highest trees family. Various species learned to live or hunt in high canopies, some by gliding, including snakes. Most famous is Asia's only ape, the orang utan, but the salty crocodile or birds are no less interesting.—KGF Vissers
