Abstract

This study investigates the daily activity patterns and feeding behavior of captive ring-tailed lemurs Lemur catta housed at the Schmutzer Primate Center, Ragunan Zoo, Indonesia. Through systematic observation over two months, including Ad Libitum and Focal Animal Sampling methods, data were collected on three adult individuals (one female and two males). Results revealed a predominant time allocation to resting (72.6%), followed by grooming (9.81%), locomotion (8.20%), and feeding (8.15%). Feeding activity peaked in the morning and late afternoon, aligning with thermoregulatory behavior such as sunbathing. The lemurs displayed a preference for provisioned fruits and vegetables, with limited manipulation of food items, reflecting species-specific feeding traits. No occurrences of agonistic, sexual, or play behaviors were recorded during the observation period. These findings highlight the behavioral adaptations of L. catta in a semi-natural captive setting and provide essential insights for enhancing animal welfare, enrichment, and management practices in zoological institutions. Keywords: daily activity pattern, feeding behavior, Lemur catta, ring-tailed lemur, Schmutzer Primate.

Abstract

Utilizes animals as traditional medicine have been known globally. A study to collect, analyze and evaluate utilization of animals as traditional medicine by indegenous people was carried in September to November 2022 in Pangkal Pinang City, Bangka Island, Sumatra. Data collection was done through surveys and informant selection using snowball sampling. Three selected local people were then interviewed according to the prepared questionnaire. We analysis information by qualitatively (using descriptive statistics) and quantitatively (calculating RFC or Relative Frequency of Citation) and Informant Consensus Factor (ICF). Our study found that the utilization of animals as traditional medicine is still practiced due to various interconnected reasons. The animals utilized as traditional medicine by local people consist of 6 families and 6 species, including Reptilia (3 species with a percentage of 50.0%), as well as Mammalia, Actinopterygii, and Aves (each with 1 species and a percentage of 16.7%). Herpetofauna ranks first based on the percentage of the number of animal species utilized as traditional medicine by the community of Ketapang Subdistrict. There is correlation between the age of informants and the level of knowledge regarding the utilization of animals as traditional medicine indicates that informants aged over 45 have broader knowledge due to their life experiences. Finally, wildlife conservation in traditional medicinal practices is essential to preserve cultural heritage and support ecological sustainability

Abstract

The research investigates the daily behaviors of long-tailed macaques (Macaca fascicularis) within a semi-natural enclosure on Tinjil Island, Banten, Indonesia, aiming to enhance understanding of their adaptability and social dynamics. Data were collected through scan sampling over five days, focusing on 20 individuals of varying age and sex. The results highlight locomotion, feeding, and resting as dominant activities, with feeding strategies adapting to food availability and environmental conditions. Social behaviors, including grooming and play, were critical for group cohesion, hygiene, and development. Supplementary feeding reduced competition for resources, stabilizing social interactions within the group. Agonistic and vocalization behaviors further underscored the species' complex social structure. These findings offer valuable insights for improving conservation management, enhancing the welfare of captive populations, and addressing the species’ endangered status. This research contributes to a foundational understanding of M. fascicularis behavior, guiding future conservation and management efforts for this ecologically and scientifically significant primate.

Abstract

Indonesia hosts a remarkable diversity of freshwater fishes, including numerous endemic wild Betta Betta spp. (Anabantiformes: Osphronemidae). However, the rise of e-commerce has facilitated unregulated online trade of wild Betta species. This study investigates the diversity, conservation status, and trade dynamics of wild Betta species between 1–21 October 2025, in Indonesia’s three largest online marketplaces: Shopee, Tokopedia, and Lazada. A total of 38 wild Betta species were identified, including five Critically Endangered, eleven Endangered, and seven Vulnerable taxa. The trade was dominated by species from Sumatra and Kalimantan, which together accounted for over 85% of endemic taxa. Market analysis revealed a positive correlation between rarity and price, with Endangered and Not Assessed species commanding the highest average prices. The presence of Critically Endangered species such as Betta hendra and B. burdigula indicates ongoing extraction from the wild despite conservation risks. Furthermore, nearly 26% of traded species remain Data Deficient or Not Assessed, reflecting critical knowledge gaps that hinder management and policy enforcement. The findings underscore the urgent need for stronger regulation of digital wildlife trade, improved conservation assessments, and promotion of captive breeding programs to reduce wild collection pressure.

Abstract

Anthropogenic land-use change is a primary driver of global biodiversity loss, yet rural agricultural matrices often retain significant ecological function. This study assesses the composition, diversity, and microhabitat associations of herpetofauna in two human-modified landscapes (Air Duren and Cengkong Abang) in Bangka Regency, Indonesia. Fieldwork was conducted over three consecutive weeks in July 2022 using a time-constrained Visual Encounter Survey (VES) method (19:00–21:00). We recorded 13 individuals representing 7 species and 6 families. The assemblage was dominated by generalist amphibians (Fejervarya cancrivora, Duttaphrynus melanostictus) and synanthropic reptiles (Eutropis multifasciata, Gekko smithii). Notably, Cengkong Abang hosted forest-associated arboreal species, including Tropidolaemus wagleri, Boiga dendrophila, and Ahaetulla prasina, correlating with its higher structural vegetation complexity. Diversity analysis revealed a higher Shannon-Wiener index in Cengkong Abang (H' = 1.75) compared to Air Duren (H' = 1.33). The presence of arboreal and semi-aquatic guilds indicates that rural matrices can function as permeable habitats and secondary refugia. Conservation strategies in Bangka should prioritize the retention of vegetation complexity and stratified canopies within village landscapes to sustain herpetofaunal biodiversity.
