Wildlife encounters in Borneo’s rainforest

Wildlife Wong’s work tracking bears brings him into close contact with Borneo’s pygmy elephants, whose behavior ranges from curious interactions with camera traps to a tense roadside encounter with a baby elephant. The book pairs this wildlife story with factual material about pygmy elephants and their rainforest habitat, then adds experiments that invite young readers to explore scientific observation themselves. Its combination of animal encounters, habitat information, and hands-on activities connects a narrative episode with opportunities to learn about the species and its environment.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 9–12 interested in endangered animals and rainforest wildlife.
  • Young readers who enjoy stories about animal encounters alongside factual information.
  • Children who want to try science experiments related to wildlife observation.

Book overview

Pygmy means 'small', but pygmy elephants are the largest mammals in Borneo, and they can be very dangerous. When Wildlife Wong is tracking bears in the rainforest, he tries his best to avoid them, but he isn't always successful. In this story, curious elephants take their own photos with his camera traps, an angry male chase him down the road, and a family of elephants sit on his car in the middle of the night!

 

So, what will Wong do when a lonely baby elephant walks across the road in front of him?

 

After the story, learn interesting facts about pygmy elephants and their rainforest home. Then conduct experiments and become a scientist just like Wildlife Wong!
