KOTA KINABALU: The Sabah Forestry Department's special "Protect Team" – aimed at wiping out poachers and traffickers threatening the state's iconic wildlife species – has been given a boost with an RM4mil donation from the Sime Darby Foundation.

This is part of the state's renewed effort to eradicate poaching and wildlife trafficking by having more enforcement on the ground.
