Facial expressions in sun bears have not been studied, but open-mouth expressions are shown mostly by juveniles and during play in the closely related American black bears Ursus americanus The results showed bears produced the majority of their open-mouth expressions when their playmates faced them. Sun bears are found in the tropical forests of Southeast Asia ; the range is bound by northeastern India to the north and extends south to southeast through Bangladesh, Cambodia, Myanmar, Laos, Thailand and Vietnam in mainland Asia to Brunei, Indonesia and Malaysia to the south. These bears are threatened by heavy deforestation and illegal hunting for food and the wildlife trade ; they are also harmed in Sun Bear 1st edition with humans when they enter farmlands, plantations and orchards.

  • The 2008 IUCN Red Listings of the World's Small Carnivores
    The 2008 IUCN red listings of the world’s small carnivores Jan SCHIPPER¹*, Michael HOFFMANN¹, J. W. DUCKWORTH² and James CONROY³ Abstract The global conservation status of all the world’s mammals was assessed for the 2008 IUCN Red List. Of the 165 species of small carni- vores recognised during the process, two are Extinct (EX), one is Critically Endangered (CR), ten are Endangered (EN), 22 Vulnerable (VU), ten Near Threatened (NT), 15 Data Deficient (DD) and 105 Least Concern. Thus, 22% of the species for which a category was assigned other than DD were assessed as threatened (i.e. CR, EN or VU), as against 25% for mammals as a whole. Among otters, seven (58%) of the 12 species for which a category was assigned were identified as threatened. This reflects their attachment to rivers and other waterbodies, and heavy trade-driven hunting. The IUCN Red List species accounts are living documents to be updated annually, and further information to refine listings is welcome.

  • Indonesia 24 September to 15 October 2013
    Indonesia 24 September to 15 October 2013 Dave D Redfield Mammal Tour Picture: Sunda Flying Lemur (Colugo) with young by Richard White Report compiled by Richard White The story: 5 islands, 22 days and 52 mammals... A journey to a land where lizards fly, squirrels are the size of mice, civets look like otters and deer are no bigger than small annoying poodles...Indonesia! Where did this all begin...? In late June I was thinking of heading to Asia for a break. After yet another Tasmanian winter I wanted to sweat, get soaked in a tropical rain shower, get hammered by mosquitoes...I wanted to eat food with my hands (and not get stared at), wear sandals, drink cheap beer...and of course experience an amazing diversity of life. While researching some options I contacted my former employer and good friend Adam Riley from Rockjumper Birding Tours/Indri and he suggested I touch base with a client that I had arranged trips for before. The client (and now friend!) in question, Dave Redfield, has seen an aPD]LQJYDULHW\RIWKHZRUOG¶VPDPPDO species but, at that time, had yet to visit Indonesia. So, armed with a target list and a 22 day budget, I sat down and began researching and designing a tour in search of a select suit of mammal species for Dave. Time, terrain, concentration of species and cost were considered. We settled on a few days in mammal hotspots on Java, Sumatra, Borneo, Sulawesi and finally Bali, in that order. %DOLZDVDOVRFKRVHQDVDJRRGSODFHWRZLQGGRZQDIWHUµURXJKLQJLW¶ though the rest of Indonesia. It is also worth mentioning that Dave, realising that seeing all the ZRUOG¶Vmammals in the wild is an impossible target, does count mammals seen in captivity; the target list of species was thus not what one might have expected (for example, a Red Spiny Mouse was a priority but Babirusa was not).

The Greeks associated them with both the sea and sun and were considered to be under the protection of the gods Poseidon and Apollo. Pinnipeds can be found in facilities around the world, as their large size and playfulness make them popular attractions. Zoologist Georges Cuvier noted during the 19th century that wild seals show considerable fondness for humans and stated that they are second only to some monkeys among wild animals in their easily tamability. Francis Galton noted in his landmark paper on domestication that seals were a spectacular example of an animal that would most likely never be domesticated despite their friendliness and desire for comfort due to the fact that they serve no practical use for humans. Some modern exhibits have rocky backgrounds with artificial haul-out sites and a pool, while others have pens with small rocky, elevated shelters where the animals can dive into their pools. More elaborate exhibits contain deep pools that can be viewed underwater with rock-mimicking cement as haul-out areas. The most common pinniped species kept in captivity is the California sea lion as it is both easy to train and adaptable. Other species popularly kept include the grey seal and harbor seal. Larger animals like walruses and Steller sea lions are much less common.

  • Civets in Trade in Medan, North Sumatra, Indonesia (1997–2001) with Notes on Legal Protection
    Civets in trade in Medan, North Sumatra, Indonesia (1997–2001) with notes on legal protection Chris R. SHEPHERD Abstract During wildlife market surveys carried out in North Sumatra, Indonesia, between 1997 and 2001, three species of civets were observed in trade, including Common Palm Civet Paradoxurus hermaphroditus, Masked Palm Civet Paguma larvata and Small-toothed Palm Civet Arctogalidia trivirgata. No harvest quotas are allotted to the latter two species in Indonesia and therefore trade of these is consid- ered illegal. Very little is known of the extent of the trade in civets in Indonesia, or of the impact trade may have on wild populations. This report calls for increased monitoring of the wildlife trade and increased enforcement of wildlife trade regulations. Further research to be carried out on civets and their status in Indonesia is also recommended. Keywords: CITES, harvest quotas, legal protection, Viverridae, wildlife trade Abstrak Selama survei-survei pasar perdagangan satwa liar di Sumatra Utara yang dilakukan dari tahun 1997 sampai tahun 2001, ditemukan tiga jenis musang yang diperdagangkan, yaitu Musang Luwak Paradoxurus hermaphroditus, Musang Galing Paguma larvata and Musang Akar Arctogalidia trivirgata. Kuota penangkapan belum ditetapkan untuk kedua jenis terakhir. Oleh karena itu perdagangan jenis ini merupakan kegiatan illegal. Belum ada banyak informasi mengenai perdagangan jenis-jenis musang di Indonesia dan belum diketahui dampak dari perdagangan ini terhadap populasi liar. Melalui laporan/kajian ini kami mengusulkan peningkatan pemantauan terhadap perdagangan satwa liar dan peningkatan penerapan aturan-aturan yang mengatur perdagangan satwa liar. Dianjurkan pula penelitian yang lebih mendalam terhadap jenis-jenis musang dan statusnya di Indonesia.

  • Sulawesi's Mysterious Apex Predator
    Sulawesi’s mysterious apex predator By Iwan Hunowu & Alfons Patandung, 17th December 2019 The island of Sulawesi, Indonesia, has always fascinated naturalists and biologists for the role it played in formulating the theory of evolution. In 2019, the world celebrated 150 years since Alfred Russell Wallace wrote his classic book ‘The Malay Archipelago’, which stimulated his thinking of evolution by natural selection. This book was in part inspired by his time discovering and enjoying Sulawesi’s rich and enigmatic wildlife, which includes an assemblage of mammal species, 62% of which are endemic to the island. Sulawesi is the world’s 11th largest island and home to two endemic pig species, the hairless babirusa and Sulawesi warty pig, and two endemic dwarf buffaloes species, the lowland anoa and montane anoa. Sulawesi’s mysterious apex predator, the Sulawesi Giant Civet, was found up to 1,079 m asl inside the forest of Bogani Nani Wartabone National Park. Photo: Bogani Nani Wartabone National Park and WCS Indonesia Program. Yet, despite the presence of these relatively large ungulates (the pigs weigh 50–100 kg, the anoas up to 300 kg), the island’s apex mammalian predator is—somewhat surprisingly—the small, slender and endemic Sulawesi civet Macrogalidia musschenbroekii, with a body weight of only 4–6 kg. Although top predators are typically well-studied across their range, the Sulawesi civet remains little known, with only scant data available on its distribution, habitat preferences and conservation status. The only recent published records preceding our study were from a 2002 camera trap photo from Southeast Sulawesi (Lee et al., 2003).
