Abstract

ABSTRACT  A herpetofauna identification training was conducted at the Faculty of Forestry, University of Papua, aimed at enhancing students' skills in species recognition, morphological understanding, and scientific specimen preservation. The activity served as an implementation of the Merdeka Belajar Kampus Merdeka (MBKM) curriculum, which emphasizes experiential learning. The four-day training involved 17 students from the Diploma (D3) Conservation and Undergraduate (S1) Forestry programs. The methods included lectures, laboratory specimen observation, field exploration, morphological identification, and preservation using 70% alcohol. The results showed that participants successfully identified approximately 20 herpetofauna species from over 50 collected and preserved samples. Evaluation revealed high satisfaction levels: 80% of students were very satisfied with the training materials, 85% with the instructional methods, and 75% with the available facilities. This training not only improved practical competencies but also produced curated specimens that now serve as active learning materials in forest ecology and wildlife conservation courses. The initiative serves as a replicable model for field and laboratory-based capacity building in biodiversity conservation, particularly in eastern Indonesia.

Kegiatan ini merupakan bentuk implementasi Merdeka Belajar Kampus Merdeka (MBKM) yang menekankan pada pembelajaran berbasis pengalaman langsung. Pelatihan berlangsung selama empat hari dan diikuti oleh 17 mahasiswa dari program D3 Konservasi dan S1 Kehutanan. Metode pelatihan meliputi ceramah, observasi koleksi laboratorium, eksplorasi lapangan, identifikasi morfologi spesimen, serta praktik pengawetan menggunakan alkohol 70%. Hasil pelatihan menunjukkan bahwa peserta mampu mengidentifikasi sekitar 20 spesies herpetofauna dari lebih dari 50 sampel yang berhasil dikoleksi dan diawetkan. Evaluasi menunjukkan tingkat kepuasan sangat tinggi: 80% peserta sangat puas terhadap materi pelatihan, 85% terhadap metode penyampaian, dan 75% terhadap fasilitas. Kegiatan ini tidak hanya memperkuat kompetensi praktis mahasiswa, tetapi juga menghasilkan koleksi spesimen yang digunakan sebagai media pembelajaran aktif dalam mata kuliah konservasi dan ekologi hutan. Pelatihan ini menjadi model penguatan kapasitas sumber daya manusia berbasis laboratorium dan lapangan, khususnya dalam bidang konservasi keanekaragaman hayati di wilayah timur Indonesia.

Abstract

A study was conducted in Yemang, Yongsu Dosoyo –at the northern site of Cyclops moutains, in Depapre District, Jayapura, Papua. Twenty-four traps were randomly set in 4 trap stations per habitat (garden and forest) with 10 m distance between stations. Each trap stations consist of three traps with three different type of baits during four on four consecutive nights.  This paper presents results of this study. Key words: small mammals, lowland forest, garden, Papua
