An adult female of Rhinoceros hornbill (Buceros rhinoceros) at Bali Zoo in Singapadu, Sukawati, Gianyar, Bali, Indonesia. Yoki Hadiprakarsa, founder of the Indonesian Hornbill Conservation Society, was quoted by Mongabay saying that hornbill is "a true 'carbon superhero' that works silently helping tropical forests to maintain their health integrity (and) to store more carbon." Hornbills, in general, are indeed considered as important seed dispersers, and dubbed as "the forest farmers", thus they have a very important role in forest regeneration. "When hornbills are lost, the nature of the forest will change over the next few decades and centuries, because those plants that hornbills are feeding on and dispersing will become filtered out, " said Rohit Naniwadekar, a hornbill specialist at the Nature Conservation Foundation in India, as quoted by Carolyn Cowan in her May 15, 2024 article published on Mongabay. "There would also be knock-on effects on forest carbon storage, " Carolyn added in the article.
