Held at the Lai Lai Art Studio in Ampang, Selangor from May 19 to June 11, the “Happy Forest, Happy Wildlife” exhibition featured 28 pieces expressing the importance of the world's smallest bear species.
“We should not forget them. They play important roles in the forest ecosystem and we need them so that the forest is healthy and the wildlife is happy,” said Wong."Many sun bear supporters came , and art lovers also learned about the animals through it. Before he started his research 24 years ago, Wong said, very little was known about sun bears by the public and even scientists.
Artists such as Alice Chang Oi Lai, Hidawati Amin, Low Khay Hooi, Nasrin Nadhirah, Ng Yan Lih, Ng Yi Shen, Sanae Yamada, Suzi Chua, Wong Siew Lee and Zurin Shaari contributed their pieces to the exhibition. This is because continuous deforestation for economic importance was affecting wildlife habitats and leading to climate change, she added.
