Abstract

The Arfak tribe has utilized snakes as functional food for generations. This study aims to describe the pattern of the snake utilization as functional food. This research was conducted using Descriptive Method with semi-structured interview and observation. Data collection was performed in 27 villages in Manokwari Regency. Data analysis was carried out qualitatively and quantitatively. The results showed that the Arfak tribe has utilised five species of snakes as functional food, which are Leiophython albertisii, Apodora papuana, Morelia amethystine, Morelia viridis, and Micropechis ikaheka. The utilised parts are meat, fat and bile. The health benefits of snakes are grouped into four categories, namely curing diseases of the respiratory tract, skin diseases, chronic diseases and increasing body strength and vitality. Although snakes have been utilized and are believed to have health benefits, issues related to zoonosis and the absence of comprehensive studies showing the effectiveness of snakes as medicine have resulted in the utilization of snakes as functional food has been debatable.

Abstract

Cuscus (Spilocuscus maculatus) in captivity that were given a dominant fruit diet needed additional feed from their natural habitat because of the higher nutritional potential and fiber components. This study aims to determine the palatability of cuscus to the feed based on organic value. An experimental method was used, consisting of 4 treatment groups: 100% banana (Musa paradisiaca) as control, 70% banana mixed with 30% matoa (Pometia pinnata) leaves, 70% banana mixed with 30% ironwood (Pongamia pinnata) leaves, and 70% banana mixed with 30% crickets (Gryllus bimaculatus). The results showed that banana was the most preferred feed ingredient, either alone or as a supplementary feed mixture. In terms of quantity, its mixture with matoa leaves had a higher consumption level than ironwood leaves and crickets. The consumption level of organic matter was higher in the treatment with 100% banana than in other treatments. This information will help support ex-situ and in-situ conservation programs formulated by the government and other parties, including the community.
