Pygmy elephants. Monkeys with noses the size of beer cans. And a deer so small you could cradle it like a baby. All this, in the middle of Malaysia’s Borneo rain forest. This is the type of place where pandemics are born. HIV came from a rain forest. So did Ebola. Yellow fever. And Zika. The next troubling outbreak could come from a rain forest like this. And a big reason why: all the crazy animals that live here.
