There is a vast and ever-accumulating amount of behavioural data on individually recognised animals, an incredible resource to shed light the ecological evolutionary drivers variation in animal behaviour. Yet, full potential such lies comparative research across taxa with distinct life histories ecologies. Substantial challenges impede systematic comparisons, one which lack persistent, accessible standardised databases. Big-team approaches building databases offer solution facilitating...
The nest environment, in particular sand temperature, is critical to the breeding ecology of sea turtles which lack parental care during their early stages life. We investigated effects temperature on emergence success and sex ratio Olive Ridley (Lepidochelys olivacea) hatchlings situ relocated nests Alas Purwo National Park (APNP), East Java, Indonesia. Over two years observation no survived due predation, while varied between years. Temperatures above 34°C experienced by over at least...
Abstract Primates live in complex social systems with structures ranging from more to less despotic. In despotic species, dominance might impose fewer constraints on choices, tolerance is greater than species and subordinates may have little need include novel food items the diet (i.e. neophilia), as contest competition lower resources equally distributed across group members. Here, we used macaques a model assess whether different styles predict differences neophilia over food. We provided...
In several species, rank predicts access to food, and subordinates may need specific behavioural strategies get a share of resources. This be especially important in despotic where resources are strongly biased favour dominants more rely on tactics maximize food intake. Here, we compared three macaque species with an experimental set-up reproducing feeding competition contest. Following our predictions, tolerant mostly retrieved the presence others were less dependent tactics. Contrarily,...
When studying animal behavior in the wild, some behaviors may require observation from a relatively short distance. In these cases, habituation is commonly used to ensure that animals do not perceive researchers as direct threat and alter their presence. However, can have significant effects on welfare conservation of animals. Studying how nonhuman primates react process help identify factors affect implement protocols allow other speed up while maintaining high standards health safety for...
Wildlife trade has become one of the main causes species loss and extinction. Increasing anthropogenic pressure posits crucial challenges to wildlife, several are threatened or at edge In this study, we aimed examine current wildlife in Makassar City South Sulawesi, especially focusing on traded species, their area origin, price, conservation status traders’ distribution across city. We conducted a market survey direct observations animals traders locations, using questionnaire targeting...
Abstract Play is widespread across mammalian taxa, but species strongly vary in the ways they play. In less despotic primate (i.e., with steep dominance hierarchies, severe conflicts, and more reconciliation), play has been described as being frequent, cooperative, freely expressed. To study link between social style, we compared behavior free‐ranging infants, juveniles subadults of Japanese macaques ( Macaca fuscata, N = 24) moor maura, 17). We found interspecific differences that...
This paper presents a case study of the landscape Bulue Village in Soppeng District, Indonesia, showing that site suitability evaluation was an important step process ecotourism development planning protected area which accommodated characteristics.Spatial multicriteria decision analysis combined with descriptive utilized as methodology this study.The results showed had (1) highly suitable 1.33%; (2) moderately 16.94%; (3) marginally 73.21%, and (4) not 8.51% for ecotourism.Moreover, there...
Abstract Edible bird nest is a made from saliva of swiftlet ( Aerodramus fuciphagus ). In term food safety, nitrite one chemical hazards that should be checked in edible (EBN) which can affect human health. Occurance determined its level uncleaned EBN and cleaning process. This preliminary study was aimed to check taken houses South Sulawesi. The analysis using spectrophotometer showed content varied among ranged 4.7 µg/g 164.4 µg/g. result most sample Sulawesi below the limit regulated by...
Wildlife diversity is one of the essential assets national development and has become major tourist attractions in Indonesia for nature-based tourism. South Sulawesi was once famous its kingdom butterflies located Bantimurung-Bulusaraung National Park, Maros Regency. Here, have long been known as tourism objects had positive contribution toward community's prosperity well-being area. This study aims to determine butterfly species time their occurrences educational forest Universitas...
Abstract Snake predation is considered an important evolutionary force for primates. Yet, very few studies have documented encounters between primates and snakes in the wild. Here, we provide a preliminary account of how wild moor macaques ( Macaca maura ) respond to seven species real model snakes. Snakes could be local dangerous (i.e., venomous or constricting), nondangerous, novel dangerous. Macaques reacted most strongly constrictors pythons), exploring them producing alarm calls,...
Persepsi wisatawan perlu diketahui agar dalam pengembangan fasilitas wisata dapat lebih mudah diarahkan sehingga penggunaan optimal. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini dimaksudkan untuk menganalisis faktor-faktor ekowisata kawasan mangrove Tongke-Tongke khususnya ditinjau dari persepsi masyarakat yang hal juga melibatkan dengan tujuan memperoleh rumusan dan mengusulkan strategi sebagai berbasis masyarakat. Penelitian dilaksanakan selama akhir bulan November 2017 sampai Januari 2018. Pengambilan...
Abstract Forest loss due to anthropogenic activities is one of the main causes plant and animal species decline. Studying species’ population status (i.e., density, abundance, geographic distribution) on a regular basis tools assess effect wildlife, monitor dynamics intervene with effective conservation strategies when an endangered declines. On Sulawesi Island, Indonesia, activities, such as agriculture, are decreasing remaining natural habitats available for several endemic species. The...
Abstract Female primates represent the most important social partner for their developing offspring. However, mothers may strongly differ in way they relate to offspring (e.g., terms of two different dimensions: protectiveness and rejection). In this study, we aimed assess how dominance style predicts (i) changes maternal behavior through development, (ii) link between behavior. We conducted behavioral observations on 34 free‐ranging immatures species macaques with styles: less tolerant...
Abstract This study aimed to determine the amount of carbon storage various mangrove zonation formed on Marsegu Island, West Seram, Maluku. Island is a Raised Coral which has 46.75% vegetation (112.29 ha) with area each 32.12 ha (proximal zone), 39.00 (middle zone) and 41.17 (distal zone). The calculation stored stocks in island used SNI guidelines (Indonesian National Standard) 7724:2011. Field measurements for estimation forest (ground-based accounting). estimations above-ground proximal...
Many sandy beach forests on small islands were cut down by people for farming to provide their food needs. Land degraded due over-exploitation is overgrown Imperata cylindrica, which often causes fires in the dry season. This study aims determine species that occur secondary succession of grassland vegetation assess soil fertility and differences carbon stocks various types cover Marsegu raised coral island. The measurement calculation used Indonesian National Standard 7724:2011 with slight...

Anthropogenic pressure has significantly increased in the last decades, often enhancing conflicts at human–wildlife interface. Therefore, understanding peoples’ value orientations, attitudes and behavioural intentions towards wildlife is a crucial endeavour to reduce occurrence of between humans wildlife. Previous research USA shown consistent link modernization anthropomorphism (i.e., tendency attribute human mental or physical characteristics other entities), leading positive changes...
