The Helmeted Hornbill Is a Living Treasure-and That’s a Problem.
Over the last decade, Helmeted Hornbills have experienced a dramatic increase in poaching for their casque, which is carved into luxury objects similar to elephant ivory. In addition, loss of old-growth forests, required for nesting hornbills, further threatens this species, and as a result it leapt from Near Threatened to Critically Endangered in 2015.
In the remote old-growth forests of Southeast Asia lives the Helmeted Hornbill-a spectacular bird with an immense bill that seems like a work of art. Sadly, those ivory-like casques have spurred a wave of poaching that is driving the species toward extinction.
Photojournalist Tim Laman documents intimate details from their nests and a growing movement to stop the illegal trade.

Thank you, thank you, thank you for everything you do to protect those forests and their inhabitants. Thank you.
This comment Hertes 😰😢🥲 thank you for your way of thinking
Thank you for this beautiful and heartbreaking documentary.
This is a fantastic short film. Thank you for producing it and raising awareness of such a magnificent creature.
Such a majestic creature. So shameful that some people would rather kill these species for a shiny piece of souvenir than see them soaring eternally in equally majestic rainforests. The conservationists deserve our support and gratitude for doing a noble job and preserving invaluable species for posterity.
👍🤚excellent documentary my friends. It is heartbreaking to know humans are still killing birds every day for many reasons but none justify killing this precious bid. So happy you are trying to bring awareness to stop the killings. Thank you for sharing this. I truly hope you get donations to help fight to protect these beautiful birds. From Florida
As an aspiring ornithologist, it pains me that this bird is in this dire condition because of this ridiculous demand for its horn
hi. how long is ornithologist major? is that a bs or master or ph deree? what type of dove was cooing towards the end of this video?
@@zulmakarnacha that's not a dove. It was the call of these helmeted hornbills.
We share a passion for birds 👏👏👏
@@zulmakarnacha I dont think there is an Ornithology Major they are likely just majoring in Wildlife Biology, or Conservation Science etc
It is too pathetic to see how the human being can become so abominable, how they can kill incredibly majestic creatures to turn them into useless crap ... It is very unfortunate so much ignorance and so much unjustified greed. Thank you so much guys for trying to remedy this behavior through the love and respect towards animal life and its environment.
Humans fucking suck.
You are so right 🥲😭 😕😠😡
What a beautiful bird. It's just disgraceful what some people do for their own benefit. Let's hope it's not too late.
Thank you for showing us a species that is so beautiful. Keep working hard Yoki, Tim, and all conservationists out here. God bless
I just read about them two days ago and it had a picture. I was wishing I could see some footage. Glad I had subscribed to this channel
The closing scene of the video is always the best part! So moving
Thanks for making documentary on this. Appreciate your efforts
Thank you for your HEART and your efforts!!!! We have to keep believing consciousness on this world can change ....
thank you to bring us to see and feel...the value of life of these birds..
Hope your efforts to save the bird have a positive impact. Nice documentary shows the father's love.
Amazing Film, thank you for your job! We have to save this beautiful creatures.
It's very incredible to be surrounded with those beautiful birds n animals.. Best wishes to those who strive for it
Great footage and a wonderfully told but sad story.
excellent documentary
Amazing work....keep it rolling..quite happy to see this...one of my fav bird 😍
so amazing .. this nature always need people like you all guys, bravo ..
Extraordinary Documentary!😍😍😘😘😊😊
Wonderful work thank you Cornell ornithology
Is there any way to replicate the old growth trees to inspire nest sites?
There might be a shortcut in the way of artificial nesting hollows, but the biggest threat - humans - remains. Many countries don't have the resources to devote toward such a project; and that is IF the species in question will accept artificial burrows.
Education is likely the best solution.
@@ToddWrightthedrummer Thanks for understanding Ms. Sibona's question and giving a thoughtful answer, unlike White.
Congrat's on your IWFF 2020 win ... Well deserved!! :)
Thank you for your hard work
Natural86 fuck that man for killing an endangered species
I hope to see and photograph this bird species one day....such lovely birds
Enjoyed and gave a Thumbs Up also
tq for this inspiring video..im from sarawak and i really hope to see this majestic bird.i know it is quite impossible to see them here as sarawak are indanger of losing our great forest too.may one day i can constribute something to make them stay for another generations.
Please keep up your good work don't let this magnificent creature go extinct. People should understand that we humans alone cannot live on this planet. We must learn to co-exist together "live and let live ".🙏👍
Amazed by looking at the sense of responsibility the male bird has & the trust female has on her mate. We should really save this species.
Im proud of you guys..keep it up...
Brilliant documentary; at the same disheartening to see that human greediness leading to extinction of a beautiful bird.
Amazing job in this video!I hope the government can stop the killings of these wonderful birds
Great Documentary.. 👍👍👍💪💪
Great foorage.Thanks for sharing this
May الله give you kindness from الله side. Thank to you for care to the birds.
You people are really great.God bless
Great effort to protect this amazing bird ,the trade must be bann with red eye by the authorities. Appreciated the effort.
Nice video I like it beautiful landscape. 😊
Thank you for everything...please save them
Amazing wow 👍
Sungai Utik? Is that Apai Janggut?
it's heartbreaking to see those beaks.
The Native Tribe in my hometown know what time it is by hearing the sounds of this birds, they make a sound every hour, thats when the native knows what time it is. But then they are be hunted for their casque. The way to help is not buy the casques and cutting down old tall trees. If the buying stop the killing stop.
So, each year they were searching for a new nest?
Hopefully this beautifull animals can be seen forever
Amazing documentary,wish it was longer,if say a male hornbill perishes while his partner is sealed in the nest cavity,would she be able to break free and tend to the chicks on her own,?i know that one scenario is they starve,the female hornbills and her chicks,would it be possible for a female to raise the chicks own her own?
Oh ffs. Can nothing just be left alone
Natural86 Seriously. It breaks my heart that we just destroy and consume without doing more to give back. Im so thankful for organizations like Cornell though because their efforts to protect wildlife make a difference
Amazing!!! Thank you guys, love from Chile.
Fuck you. You like people killing endangered species who just wants to live in fucking peace
Love from thai
Skrg gimn kbrnya ini burung?. Tambah naik apa ga jumlahnya?.
They have amazing tails. Wish I could find a PhD project working on hornbill conservation. It angers me how many are being shot and smuggled.
What a wonderful documentary, Thailand and Indonesian government should be ashamed of doing nothing to save this wonderful bird we human beings are a living selfish monster
Great documentary! Is there any chance of dubbing it with Chinese narration & subtitle, directing this "open" video to president of China, to ban owning red ivory? In the hope of cutting the demand for them. Thank you.
I'm stupid yes I am for my shake my great animals, plants and beautiful birds are suffering.. but can do nothing for nature.. God you created this wonderful nature only thing I can do is pray you to preserve the beauty of nature..
Waaahh luar biasa di Indonesia masih ada burung langka ini ..harus di lindungi ..
Beautifully shot... Though sad to see
For anyone who dosen't know the "Rhinoceros Hornbill Bird" is now on the endangered list which is so sad because this creature looks very intregaing and I became horrified to know it became this way because of plantations of oil palm trees.
And theirs alot of food we didn't know that has palm oil in it For Example : Tastykake products have Palm oil in them so if you are a person who likes Tastykake like me that didn't know about this information then you and I are unconsciously hurting the RHINOCEROS HORNELL BIRD!
Please be aware of what your eating and what's inside the food your eating! And spread the word if you want to!
I just watched the latest documentary about the bird same location and they having a hard time looking for the bird but sad to say there is still some people poaching the bird
One of the fruits they eat with the flesh on it is a species of nutmeg, Myristica spp.

Every poacher that is caught...set an example with them. Tie them to a tree at the edge of the river where they can be seen by other poachers and leave them there with a message. If the poachers see enough skeletons, maybe they will get the message. That’s a start
I'll join you for saving the animals.
nice.. a lot of job to do to educate the people lives around the habitat plus creating alternative income for them
Hi
Head hunting of smugglers
If you look at 10:07 luckily it's not the same individual. The red curves aren't the same.
That title scared the shit outta me
Having first look at the bird, instantly my mind said "its a bird from Avatar".
Gue kayaknya punya burung kayak gituu....tp gak ada helm....
Hey
If the male is shot whilst the female is encased in the tree, will she starve to death or will she eventually come out once she realizes the male won’t return ?
It’s very sad to think this would happen
😢 very, very sad. Only man can do this. And man never learns his listions.
Waaoouf süper
And as always, the biggest market for poaching are the Chinese.

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Let me guess China??
Stupid it's endangered and it's
So beautiful
Do you killed them
They are easily saved. Just put all those shopkeepers that are selling this magestic bird's beak or feather into the jail. Then nobody dear to kill them anymore.
Why? Why kill these beautiful creatures?!! Ughhh...
Human are so devil, why do they killed those beautiful birds
Why your are kill them........
please don't harm birds.
Money kills everyone specially in chinnese hand.
Deforestation for palm oil and poaching... this will go extinct in 20 yr... sadly.
Please make sure no more hunting, hunters must be punished ,n, buyer's are also be, if find any where in body's home in theirs show cases must brought them under law for punishment,or the peoples should be educated not spoil the forest gems given by God.
Shit like this is why God is coming
