The fruit season in Sumatra is indeed longer than in Kalimantan, so the fruit is overflow throughout the year ▪ Arboreal animals TAPANULI ORANGUTANS Pongo tapanuliensis ▪ Pongo tapanuliensis resemble Sumatran orangutans more than Bornean orangutans in body build and fur color. ▪ However, they have frizzier hair, smaller heads, and flatter faces ▪ Based on genetic research, female orangutans in Batang Toru have a closer relationship with Bornean orangutans than Sumatran orangutans ▪ Can only be found in the Batang Toru ecosystem, in North Sumatra ▪ Lives in a very limited habitat, in an area of about 132,000 hectares in the Batang Toru landscape and several other habitats that continue to be studied ▪ The conditions of habitat are also separate, due to natural factors and to the development of the surroundings BORNEAN ORANGUTANS Pongo pygmaeus ▪ Pongo pygmaeus has a larger body size, and has dark or reddish brown short hair ▪ Classified into 3 sub-species: 1. Pongo pygmaeus pygmaeus, ranging from northwest Kalimantan (including Betung Kerihun and Danau Sentarum National Parks) north of the Kapuas river, across the east of Sarawak state (Malaysia) 2. Pongo pygmaeus wurmbii, ranging from south of Kapuas river in West Kalimantan to east of the Barito river in Central Kalimantan 3. Pongo pygmaeus morio, ranging throughout Sabah and East Kalimantan south to the Mahakam river ▪ Physically, Pongo pygmaeus wurmbii is the largest orangutan sub-species and Pongo pygmaeus morio is the smallest orangutan sub-species among its relatives in Kalimantan What Causes Human-Orangutan Conflict? • Forests converted for extractive • Loss of orangutan habitat industries • Loss of orangutan food resources • Forest Fires • Encroachment of human development on orangutan • Forest resource use (namely wildlife habitat and resources hunting) • Orangutans disorientated and searching for food resources on and around human development sites • Orangutan killed as agricultural pests or perceived threats to human safety • Orangutans killed or captured for the bushmeat or pet trade % trees with fruit 10 12 14 0 2 4 6 8 Long 7-2003 12-2003 5-2004 10-2004 - 3-2005 in the2015fires of effect term 8-2005 1-2006 6-2006 11-2006 4-2007 Trees produce LESS fruit for MANY months MANY for fruit LESS produce Trees periods: smoke extended After 9-2007 2-2008 7-2008 fruit with % trees 12-2008 5-2009 10-2009 3-2010 8-2010 1-2011 6-2011 11-2011 4-2012 9-2012 2-2013 Source: Source: 7-2013 12-2013 5-2014 Tuanan 10-2014 3-2015 8-2015 Tuanan Research Team Research 1-2016 6-2016 11-2016 4-2017 9-2017 2-2018 1% av.

  • Birds of Tanjung Puting National Park, Kalimantan Tengah a Prelimanary List
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by KUKILA BIRDS OF TANJUNG PUTING NATIONAL PARK, KALIMANTAN TENGAH A PRELIMANARY LIST by Bohap bin Jalan and Birute M.F. Galdikas (Received 3 October 1986) INTRODUCTION Tanjung Puting National Park is located on the south coast of Kalimantan (Borneo) in the province of Kalimantan Tengah, between 2"35'S and 3° 20'S and 111° 50' and 112° 15'E. Tanjung Puling was first established as a game reserve in two parts during 1936 and 1937 by the Dutch colonial government and the Sultan of Kotawaringin. Consisting of 305,000 ha the reserve was established primarily for the protection of orang utans Pongo pygmaeus, proboscis monkeys Nasalls larvatus and rhinoceros Dicerorhinus sumatrensis with the latter, however, becoming extinct in the 1940's due to severe hunting pressure for its horns. Orang utans and proboscis monkeys still remain plentiful. In 1982 the status of Tanjung puting was upgraded to National park. The park occupies most of the swampy, alluvial peninsula between Kumai Bay and the Seruyan River. The park is very flat with the highest point no more than 30 m above mean sea level. The soils are generally very poor, heavily leached, poorly developed and very acidic. The Park is drained by a number of small black water rivers radiating from its northern and eastern parts. Ground water forms an important part of all habitats and large areas of the Park are flooded for much of the year. VEGETATION a) Lowland Dipterocarp Forest While the vegetation of Tanjung puling is quite varied, approximately 40t of the Park is covered by dryland forest which approximates Lowland Dipterocarp Forest, although it differs in composition from the better known Dipterocarp Forests elsewhere in Borneo; it is forest with a "tropical heath" appearance.

Tackling Wicked Problems in Indonesia: A Bottom-Up Design Approach to Reducing Crime and Corruption ABSTRACT This paper describes how a social entrepreneur in Borneo launches a bottom-up change process to tackle wicked problems. The results of the change process to date have been remarkable: the regeneration of forest areas and habitats for endangered species, the redesign of communities and their local economies to support the forests and habitats, the reduction of crime and corruption, and changes in the climate which have generated much-needed rainfall in the area. In contrast to Indonesia’s top-down initiatives, this bottom-up strategy illustrates how the empowerment of the local people can produce dramatic results. INTRODUCTION Policy planners coined the term “wicked problems” to describe a certain type of problem they confront with greater frequency. Originally defined as a problem that was difficult to solve because of incomplete, contradictory information and design parameters (Churchman, 1967), Horst Ritell and Melvin Webber (1973) further refined the term to describe problems that cannot be definitively described nor definitively and objectively answered.
