According to the story, the durian tree was planted during first MNS expedition here in 1993. The report show that more than 600 Wreathed Hornbills and more than 157 species of birds at the 3 Forest Reserves, in a survey. Presently more than 280 species of birds have been recorded at Belum, in surveys conducted during the MNS Belum Expedition 1993/94. The bird diversity at over 285 species, is also very high and is comparable to Taman Negara National Park in Pahang. 'Belum' has not been throughly studied and therefore the diversity of birds may be as high if not higher than that of Taman Negara. It is imperative that the 3 Forest Reserves be conserved due to its importance in providing the habitats for a very large number of hornbills, birds and a variety of wildlife, such as Asian Elephants. Come we focus on Belum-Temenggor conservations of habitat, wildlife and nature.
