Human Civilisation is swallowing the forests, slowly… as a result, residents of the jungles are losing their homes every day! The rapid growth of civilisation makes the animals homeless, helpless, as well as vulnerable. Still, they try to resist when humans make an attempt to destroy their homes! An orangutan has recently been seen making an unsuccessful attempt to save his home…
Indian Forest Service employee Parveen Kaswan recently posted the heart-breaking video of the incident on Twitter. The video shows that some Forest Department officials are cutting big trees with an excavator. The orangutan can be seen walking over the branch of a tree, lying parallel to the ground, toward the huge machine. The forest officials immediately stopped the machine in order to prevent the animal from getting hurt…
According to Kaswan, the orangutan tried to stop the excavator with its hands. When the animal realised that it won’t be possible to stop the machine, it took shelter behind another tree. Kaswan recorded the entire event in his camera and then, posted it on Twitter.

The Forest Department official wrote: “Oranguton spend most of time on trees, and now only found in Borneo and Sumatra. Considered as very intelligent and most arboreal among apes, the Orangutons have become a critically endangered animal.” Meanwhile, Kaswan did not disclose the exact location where he had shot the video. So far, more than 19,000 Netizens have enjoyed (rather than viewed) the video.

Koushik Das (born on May 16, 1976 in Kolkata) is a career journalist. Based in the Indian capital of New Delhi, Koushik writes mainly about foreign policies and current geopolitical issues, and rarely about other topics. His own political ideas are highly influenced by Antonio Gramsci, Louis Althusser, Michel Foucault, Michael Oakeshott and others. English philosopher and political theorist Oakeshott (Dec 11, 1901-Dec 19, 1990) says that “in political activity, men sail a boundless and bottomless sea. There is neither harbour for shelter nor floor for anchorage, neither starting-place, nor appointed destination. But we have to keep afloat”. (Rationalism in Politics, 1962) As a student of Political Science, Koushik loves to share his views on issues, which have great impacts on his thought process (and also on India, South Asia and of course on the global community), with his readers through his website – Boundless Ocean of Politics. By doing so, he tries to keep himself afloat. You will find some of his articles in https://inserbia.info/today/ (https://inserbia.info/today/author/kou_das13_i/), as he has been trying to assess the global geopolitics since 2003.
