    Quantifying Killing of Orangutans and Human-Orangutan Conflict in Kalimantan, Indonesia

    Human-orangutan conflict and hunting are thought to pose a serious threat to orangutan existence in Kalimantan, the Indonesian part of Borneo. No data existed prior to the present study to substantiate these threats. We investigated the rates, spatial distribution and causes of conflict and hunting through an interview-based survey in the orangutan's range in Kalimantan, Indonesia. Between April 2008 and September 2009, we interviewed 6983 respondents in 687 villages to obtain socio-economic information, assess knowledge of local wildlife in general and orangutan encounters specifically, and to query respondents about their knowledge on orangutan conflicts and killing, and relevant laws. This survey revealed estimated killing rates of between 750 and 1800 animals killed in the last year, and between 1950 and 3100 animals killed per year on average within the lifetime of the survey respondents. These killing rates are higher than previously thought and are high enough to pose a serious threat to the continued existence of orangutans in Kalimantan. Importantly, the study contributes to our understanding of the spatial variation in threats, and the underlying causes of those threats, which can be used to facilitate the development of targeted conservation management

    Why Don't We Ask? A Complementary Method for Assessing the Status of Great Apes

    Species conservation is difficult. Threats to species are typically high and immediate. Effective solutions for counteracting these threats, however, require synthesis of high quality evidence, appropriately targeted activities, typically costly implementation, and rapid re-evaluation and adaptation. Conservation management can be ineffective if there is insufficient understanding of the complex ecological, political, socio-cultural, and economic factors that underlie conservation threats. When information about these factors is incomplete, conservation managers may be unaware of the most urgent threats or unable to envision all consequences of potential management strategies. Conservation research aims to address the gap between what is known and what knowledge is needed for effective conservation. Such research, however, generally addresses a subset of the factors that underlie conservation threats, producing a limited, simplistic, and often biased view of complex, real world situations. A combination of approaches is required to provide the complete picture necessary to engage in effective conservation. Orangutan conservation (Pongo spp.) offers an example: standard conservation assessments employ survey methods that focus on ecological variables, but do not usually address the socio-cultural factors that underlie threats. Here, we evaluate a complementary survey method based on interviews of nearly 7,000 people in 687 villages in Kalimantan, Indonesia. We address areas of potential methodological weakness in such surveys, including sampling and questionnaire design, respondent biases, statistical analyses, and sensitivity of resultant inferences. We show that interview-based surveys can provide cost-effective and statistically robust methods to better understand poorly known populations of species that are relatively easily identified by local people. Such surveys provide reasonably reliable estimates of relative presence and relative encounter rates of such species, as well as quantifying the main factors that threaten them. We recommend more extensive use of carefully designed and implemented interview surveys, in conjunction with more traditional field methods

    Morphometric, Behavioral, and Genomic Evidence for a New Orangutan Species

    Six extant species of non-human great apes are currently recognized: Sumatran and Bornean orangutans, eastern and western gorillas, and chimpanzees and bonobos [1]. However, large gaps remain in our knowledge of fine-scale variation in hominoid morphology, behavior, and genetics, and aspects of great ape taxonomy remain in flux. This is particularly true for orangutans (genus: Pongo), the only Asian great apes and phylogenetically our most distant relatives among extant hominids [1]. Designation of Bornean and Sumatran orangutans, P. pygmaeus (Linnaeus 1760) and P. abelii (Lesson 1827), as distinct species occurred in 2001 [1, 2]. Here, we show that an isolated population from Batang Toru, at the southernmost range limit of extant Sumatran orangutans south of Lake Toba, is distinct from other northern Sumatran and Bornean populations. By comparing cranio-mandibular and dental characters of an orangutan killed in a human-animal conflict to those of 33 adult male orangutans of a similar developmental stage, we found consistent differences between the Batang Toru individual and other extant Ponginae. Our analyses of 37 orangutan genomes provided a second line of evidence. Model-based approaches revealed that the deepest split in the evolutionary history of extant orangutans occurred ∼3.38 mya between the Batang Toru population and those to the north of Lake Toba, whereas both currently recognized species separated much later, about 674 kya. Our combined analyses support a new classification of orangutans into three extant species. The new species, Pongo tapanuliensis, encompasses the Batang Toru population, of which fewer than 800 individuals survive

    Geographic Varieties through Morphological Assessment in the Orangutan, and Implications for the Conservation Program

    Deforestation is a major threat to orangutans and has resulted in a significant decrease in population numbers. Bornean orangutans alone experienced a loss of around 100,000 individuals between 2009 and 2015. Hunting also causes a relatively high number of yearly losses. Some orangutans that survive deforestation are placed in rehabilitation centres with a view towards reintroduction within their historical distribution range. It is important to understand orangutan morphological traits that evolved specifically in different environments to aid efforts in reintroducing them to an appropriate population. This study investigates the variations in cranial, mandibular and dental morphology of subadult and dentally mature orangutans sampled from six regions in Borneo and Sumatra. Four hundred and seventy-two individuals with detailed provenance were studied and 51 measurements were taken: 22 cranial, 10 mandibular and 19 from the dentition. Analyses focused on inter- and intraspecific variations in sagittal crest development, patterns of sexual dimorphism, dental morphology and masticatory apparatus, including attention to evidence of the types of food orangutans consume. I also investigated evidence suggesting that orangutans are hunted as bushmeat by examining damage to the cranial base. This study finds interpopulation differences in the patterns of sexual dimorphism among orangutans. The facial skeleton is more sexually dimorphic than the neurocranium, and Bornean orangutans (Pongo pygmaeus) tend to be more sexually dimorphic than Sumatran orangutans (Pongo abelii). Study findings show that increases in masticatory equipment size are associated with larger sagittal crests. Both sexes of Bornean orangutans are wider across the incisors than Sumatran orangutans. Sumatran females have a longer palate than Bornean females, but the opposite pattern is observed in males. In both sexes, southwest Kalimantan orangutans have the largest dimensions, followed by North Sumatran and north Kapuas River. vii viii For the dentition, Bornean and Sumatran males do not differ in canine size. Bornean females have thicker and shorter lower canines than females. Females of southwest Kalimantan have the largest postcanine teeth of all the populations sampled, with the exception of the M3. For mesio-distal measurements, females of North Sumatra have similar molar size sequences (MSS) to males. However, males of North Sumatra have different MSS than other males as well as females. My study findings show that the targeting of orangutans for bushmeat is related to the orangutan’s size and sex class. This is likely a result of hunters’ preference for targeting the prey that are easiest to kill. Orangutan ecology and behaviour may play a role in how exposed orangutans are to hunters. In this thesis, I show that orangutan morphological variation is species- specific, with some populations showing population-specific morphologies. These findings should be considered in orangutan rehabilitation and reintroduction programs. It is especially important to take into account each individual’s population-specific morphological affinities to identify whether the population to which it is being reintroduced is appropriate in the context of the individual’s specific adaptations to its environment. This will ensure that each individual orangutan is reintroduced into its proper environment

    The creation of this work is a form of expression of ideas inspired by the uniqueness and beauty of the needle dragonfly. The shape of the needle dragonfly which has a small body with various colors also has the benefit of being a bioindicator of water cleanliness which we can find out through the needle dragonfly's lifestyle. Sensitivity to the environment today about the existence of the needle dragonfly is decreasing due to contamination of clean water, this is what underlies the creation of the work of the needle dragonfly which is made in a deformed way to achieve a certain message as a form of criticism of the environment, especially regarding water cleanliness. The analysis carried out on the objects of creation uses an aesthetic approach from Feldman, Semiotics from Charles Sanders Peirce, and Entomology from Dantje Sembel. The creation method used is a practice-based research method according to Malins, Ure, and Gray. The techniques used in the creation of this work are Assambling (electric welding), Bending, and Powder Coating Finishing Techniques. The process of an embodiment of the work includes the process of making sketches, cutting wire and iron plates, assembling using electric welding, and finishing powder coating. The three-dimensional works created are craftsmanship using metal media. The work entitled Deformation of Dragonfly Shape in Metal Crafts is expected to be able to provide public awareness in protecting the environment and can be used as a reference in the creation of metal craft works. Keywords: Needle Dragonfly, Deformation, Criticism Environment
