He's Daniel Clarke and at the age of ten, inspired by the late Steve Irwin, he set out to raise funds to conserve habitat for orangutans in Indonesia. But when some of the country's leading politicians suddenly became involved, Daniel found himself centre stage.It was a crash course in what can happen when youthful idealism clashes with hard ball politics. Daniel Clarke and his family have weathered it all and they're now making a real difference to their beloved orangutans |
