HOW many more roadkills of our already endangered animals must there be before this long-outstanding matter is addressed? Saddened as we were over the last tapir roadkill in the news, another one was reported on Dec 22 along the Jalan Seremban-Kuala Pilah road.

Then on Dec 24 in Terengganu, a sun bear was killed in an incident involving a motorcycle along the East Coast Expressway (LPT2) while over in Kuching, an adult male sun bear was slaughtered and openly sold in a local market.
