Rapid wildlife survey in Sg. Rawog

E. Alim, . and M. Kapis, . and T. Tindok, . and Z. Rahman, . (2017) Rapid wildlife survey in Sg. Rawog. [Proceedings Paper]

The survey team established a 2 km transect cut at right-angles to the access road with a starting point at 50 m from the nearest access road and then marking every 100 m. During the 2-day survey nine 9 species of mammals and twenty-eight 28 species of birds were recorded. The team discovered signs of endangered species such as Orangutan the Asian Elephant and Sun Bear. One group of gibbons was identified within the immediate area. One wildlife pathway was found suggesting that the area is functioning as a corridor. It is recommended that more transects are to be established for long-term fauna biodiversity monitoring and management.

Abstract

The survey team established a 2 km transect cut at right-angles to the access road with a starting point at 50 m from the nearest access road and then marking every 100 m. During the 2-day survey nine 9 species of mammals and twenty-eight 28 species of birds were recorded. The team discovered signs of endangered species such as Orangutan the Asian Elephant and Sun Bear. One group of gibbons was identified within the immediate area. One wildlife pathway was found suggesting that the area is functioning as a corridor. It is recommended that more transects are to be established for long-term fauna biodiversity monitoring and management.
