Life-sized lion and antelope puppets took their first steps at the London launch of a new public art project that will see them embarking on a 20,000-kilometre (12,400 miles) trek from central Africa to northern Europe, symbolically fleeing from the effects of climate change. Next year, the animal puppets will travel from the Congo Basin to northern Norway, with their herd expanding along the way. "The idea is that a group of animals starts fleeing because of climate change and as they go from city to city, they will add more native species, more endemic species and the herd grows and grows," artistic director Amir Nizar Zuabi said.

STORY: Elephants living on the South Asian island of Borneo have become endangered.And human activities such as agriculture, mining, and logging are to blame.That’s according to a recent assessment by wildlife experts.The International Union for Conservation of Nature says there are around 1,000 Bornean elephants left in the wild.Craig Hilton-Taylor heads the IUCN Red List Unit, which assesses animal species' risk of extinction. "A thousand individuals, of which only 400 are mature. Those are the breeding individuals. It's a small population, and it could easily disappear if we just let development happen without any conservation actions.”The IUCN says the number of Bornean elephants has decreased over the last 75 years - initially due to extensive logging.The animals have since entered human-dominated areas, searching for food.That in turn can cause them to destroy crops and face retribution killing.Malaysian and Indonesian authorities are working on conservation action plans to help the species cope with human development.The plans will require extensive coordination with corporations, private landowners and conservationists.
