EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print showcases a selection of the most characteristic mammals of Borneo, an island located in the heart of Southeast Asia and renowned for its rich biodiversity. The image is a testament to the extraordinary natural history discoveries made during the Victorian era, specifically by the influential figure of Alfred Russel Wallace (1823-1913). Wallace, a British naturalist, explorer, and anthropologist, spent extensive time in the Indonesian archipelago, including Borneo, between 1854 and 1862. His groundbreaking work on the geographical distribution of species, particularly his theory of biogeography, led him to propose the existence of what is now known as Wallace's Line. This imaginary boundary, separating the Asian and Australian faunas, is still relevant in understanding the unique biodiversity of the region. The photograph features several Bornean mammals, including the Bornean Orangutan, the Bornean Pygmy Elephant, the Bornean Slow Loris, the Bornean Gibbon, and the Bornean Bearded Pig. Each species is depicted in its natural habitat, providing a glimpse into the diverse ecosystems that once thrived on the island. The photograph, taken in the late 19th century, is a reminder of the significant contributions made by Wallace and other naturalists during this period to our understanding of the natural world. It also serves as a call to action to preserve the remaining habitats of these magnificent creatures and protect the unique biodiversity of Borneo for future generations.
