In this episode, Mike and Angela explore the dense 140 million-year-old jungles along Borneo's Kinabatangan River. They're on a quest to find Borneo's "Big 5" wildlife species, including Proboscis Monkeys, Orangutans, Pygmy Elephants, Rhinoceros Hornbills and massive Saltwater Crocodiles.
This adventure begins in Sandakan, a town rich in history and nature. We delve into the past, recounting the poignant story of the Ring Lady from WWII, a symbol of kindness and bravery. Our visit to nearby rehabilitation centers offers a closer look at conservation efforts and the challenges facing Orangutans and Proboscis Monkeys.
But the real adventure unfolds as we navigate up the Kinabatangan River, immersing ourselves in the untamed beauty of the Borneo rainforest, in our quest to see Borneo's Big 5 in the wild.

Borneo has one of the highest bio diversity in the world, many non mainstream researchers say, Borneo was the ancient Atlantis as described by Plato, as many of the vegetation and animals described by Plato are only found in Borneo.
