Abstract

A person may contribute to the conservation of species through donations. The willingness to donate (WTD) to conserve endangered species can depend on many factors. This research aims to determine the willingness of visitors to Indonesia's zoos and safari parks to make a donation for species conservation and identify the determinants of their WTD through preferences toward certain species. This research focused on 12 priority endangered mammals. The study began with a preliminary survey of 110 respondents in January 2020, followed by data collection in February 2020 involving 1011 adult visitors to zoos and safari parks in Java and Bali. Specifically, descriptive statistics in the form of percentages ere used to analyze the influence of preferences toward species conservation and amount of donation while considering individual characteristics such as gender, age, place of residence, occupation, and level of education. Our results confirmed that mammals, mega-herbivores and large carnivores are very popular among young adult visitors. Overall, the results demonstrated that visitors placed rhino, elephant and tiger as the three priority species to be conserved in terms of donation given. It is clear that these three charismatic species have a very high conservation value in the eyes of the people. Furthermore, the characteristics of species and the knowledge and psychological preferences of the visitors can contribute to the determination of the preference for the number of donations to certain wildlife species. Key words: charismatic species, conservation institutions, demographic characteristics, Indonesia, primate

Abstract

Traditional knowledge explains the sustainable use and management of natural resources that are critical for the long-term of ecosystems and food security one of the challenges in maintaining traditional knowledge is urbanization. This study aims to identify the diversity of food plants used by the Gayo Lut community and describe the effect of urbanization on changes in traditional knowledge. Data collection methods include freelisting and field observation. This research involved 3 groups of 16 elders, 16 non-urban, and 16 Urban. The respondents were asked to freelist by mentioning 25 of Gayo Lut traditional common food plants and interviews related to food terminology, including the food plants used. Data were analyzed with Salience Index using Anthropac, and Jaccard index to see the similarity knowledge. This study found a total 188 of food plants and 224 dishes. The effect of urbanization on food plants knowledge is significantly seen for urban community. In contrast to cuisines knowledge, urban people tend to have more knowledge, and modified recipes as a form of adaptation but still maintained distinctive flavors. This study also reveals that there is a close relationship between traditional cuisine and food plants, which can be an alternative for food plant conservation. Key words: food plant, Gayo Lut, salience index, traditional cuisine, traditional knowledge

Abstract

Orangutans exhibit significant potential as a key attraction for ecotourism centred around great apes. However, current tourist attractions primarily focus on national parks, neglecting the substantial opportunities present in wildlife reserves, particularly within Indonesia. This study seeks to investigate the feasibility of orangutan tourism activities in Lamandau Wildlife Reserve (LWR). Employing bibliometric analysis of primate tourism literature published in Indonesia from 2013 to 2023 using VOSviewer, complemented by an examination of national nature tourism policies, the research aims to elucidate the regulatory framework surrounding tourism in Indonesia wildlife reserves. The study engaged in interviews with individuals who frequently interact with orangutans in LWR through a combination of snowball technique and convenience sampling. Analysis of existing literature revealed a notable dearth of discussion pertaining to primate tourism studies in Indonesia, with a particular gap identified in the context of wildlife reserves. This oversight presents a missed opportunity, especially considering that prevailing national regulations allow the utilisation of wildlife reserve for ecotourism endeavours. To address this gap, it is imperative to align these domestic regulations with established international guidelines on primate tourism, aiming to mitigate potential tourism adverse impacts on primate populations. Assessing the tolerance levels of orangutans towards human presence in the LWR became a focal point, shedding light on the anthropogenic activities that are most compatible with orangutan behaviour. The research findings and methodologies employed hold promise in fostering the growth of orangutan tourism within Indonesia's wildlife reserves, simultaneously advancing orangutan conservation efforts and catalysing economic development within local communities.

Abstract

Aktivitas wisata alam semakin diminati salah satunya wisata gua. Wisata gua menampilkan formasi eksokarst dan endokarst, wisata gua tetap memiliki potensi bahaya yang menimbulkan kecelakaan/ kerugian bagi pengunjung. Potensi bahaya bersumber dari fisik, biologi, dan aktivitas manusia. Manajemen risiko diperlukan untuk mengurangi potensi kerugian pengelola dan pengunjung. Penelitian ini bertujuan menyusun manajemen bahaya di wisata Gua Purworejo dan sekitarnya dengan tahapan menginventarisasi dan menganalisis potensi bahaya fisik, biologi, dan aktivitas manusia melalui studi kasus di Gua Seplawan Purworejo yang dianalis dengan modifikasi panduan UNEP 2008 dan NSPA 2008. Potensi bahaya fisik area eksokarst meliputi tangga licin dan tanah longsor, tidak ditemukan bahaya biologis. Potensi bahaya fisik endokarst meliputi jalan licin, tanah lumpur, banjir, stalaktit rendah, lorong sempit, dan suhu kelembapan tinggi; bahaya biologi endokarst yaitu kelelawar dan guano; bahaya aktivitas manusia di kedua area yaitu membawa beban berlebih, berlari di tangga, memasuki gua ketika hujan, menginap di gua, tidak menggunakan perlengkapan gua, dan mendekati tepi jurang. Manajemen risiko yang diterapkan berupa edukasi bahaya wisata gua kepada pemandu dan pengunjung agar mempersiapkan diri, penambahan tali pengaman sepanjang jalur susur gua untuk keamanan pengunjung, pemasangan papan peringatan bahaya di area berbahaya seperti area stalaktit rendah, lorong sempit, tanah berlumpur, banjir, dan hunian kelelawar.

Abstract

Commonly, studies of human-primate interactions dwelled into general human impacts on primates. However, human gender differences might be a deeper factor to study regarding human’s perception and acceptance on primates. We investigated the influences of human gender differences on human and orangutan bi-directional receptions and analyzed the formed interactions between the two, located in Lamandau Wildlife Reserve, Central Kalimantan. We conducted interviews with 30 locals by using snowball and convenience sampling techniques, with some criteria applied. This study unveiled that orangutans displayed more promoting behaviors than inhibiting ones, suggesting that they displayed some tolerance on human’s presence around them. On the flipside, local villagers perceived orangutans differently between men and women, specifically when confronted by orangutans. We found some significant relations between human genders and orangutan behaviours, suggesting that orangutans migt view humans differently from their genders. These relations should result in correspondingly different forms of human-orangutan interactions. This study proposed a good input for designing suitable socioeconomic approaches for better orangutan conservation programs involving locals in Lamandau Wildlife Reserve.

Abstract

The extent to which oil palm has contributed to deforestation of primary forests is still an intensive debate in public space. Even though the term deforestation and the results of the study and study are still "debatable" and have not been scientifically valid, they have had a very debilitating effect and detrimental to Indonesia's position in global trade because it is considered responsible for the destruction of primary natural forests in the Southeast Asia region. Therefore, since 2015, research has been carried out on the origin of status, history of land use, land-cover and biodiversity in several oil palm plantations in 6 provinces (Riau, North Sumatra, South Sumatra, Central Kalimantan, West Kalimantan and West Sulawesi). The results of the search for the origins of the status of oil palm plantations (according to the RTRWP) show that 98.56% of the candidates for oil palm plantation areas are "not forested", namely: APL (54.93%), Plantation and Agriculture (42.19%). Furthermore, the results of interpretation of Landsat imagery on the condition of vegetation cover at 1 year before being made into oil palm plantations indicate that the type of land cover is no longer in the form of primary forest, but already in the form of shrubs and bare-land or rubber-plantation (68,91%). Likewise with the results of the search history of land use (see slide) where 71.29% of the land under study is the land of ex-community gardens, fields, transmigration land, or ex-HGU of other companies. While the rest (28.71%) is ex-HPH land. Referring to the juridical definition of "deforestation", this data shows that oil palm plantation land which is the location of the study "is not the result of deforestation". Referring to both the juridical definition and the FAO/World Bank definition of "deforestation", this data shows that oil palm plantation land which is the location of the study "is not a direct cause of primary deforestation".

Abstract

Perubahan tutupan lahan menjadi perkebunan kelapa sawit dianggap menurunkan keanekaragaman hayati, termasuk keragaman tumbuhan. Hutan sekunder yang berada di sekitar perkebunan kelapa sawit diharapkan dapat menjaga keberlanjutan dari keragaman tumbuhan yang masih tersisa meskipun bukan bagian dari areal perkebunan kelapa sawit. Penelitian dilakukan di empat perkebunan kelapa sawit yang tersebar di dua kabupaten yaitu Kampar dan Pelalawan, Provinsi Riau selama 28 hari pada bulan Maret 2016. Metode penelitian yaitu analisis vegetasi petak tunggal dengan mengidentifikasi keragaman tumbuhan di hutan sekunder yang ada di sekitar perkebunan kelapa sawit. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian, diperoleh bahwa keanekaragaman jenis tumbuhan bervariasi sesuai dengan kondisi lokasinya. Jumlah spesies tumbuhan yang ditemukan beragam, PT SAR (85 spesies), PT AMA (71 spesies), PT MUP (44 spesies) dan PTPN (41 spesies). Perbedaan ini karena luasan dan kerapatan hutan sekunder juga berbeda. Nilai kekayaan jenis juga berbeda setiap lokasi, yaitu PT SAR (12.02), PT AMA (9.80), PT MUP (7.66), dan PTPN (5.67). Semakin tinggi nilai kekayaan spesies di suatu lokasi menunjukkan bahwa areal tersebut memiliki keanekaragaman yang tinggi. Hutan sekunder di sekitar PT SAR merupakan areal yang memiliki tingkat keragaman tumbuhan lebih tinggi dibandingkan ketiga lokasi lainnya.

Abstract

The conservation of freshwater turtles relies on local knowledge and perceptions. This phenomenon is especially significant for communities located near turtle habitats. This study aims to investigate the influence of local communities' knowledge and perceptions of freshwater turtles on their attitudes, behaviors, and the resulting conservation outcomes for these species. Knowledge encompasses the empirical understanding of turtle species, their ecological roles, and conservation statuses. Perceptions encompass the subjective beliefs, attitudes, and values influenced by culture that communities hold regarding these species. The research was carried out in three river systems of southern Sumatra, involving interviews with 133 participants through a semi-structured approach that included closed and semi-open questionnaires, alongside a recollection method utilizing photographs as a tool. Identification was successful for only 8 of the 12 depicted turtle species, and merely one-third of the freshwater turtle eggs were identifiable. The most widely recognized species include the ambiona box turtle (Cuora amboinensis), Malaysian giant turtle (Orlitia borneensis), soft-shelled turtle (Amyda cartilaginea), and black marsh turtle (Siebenrockiella crassicollis). While most perceptions indicated a favorable attitude towards freshwater turtle conservation, negative behaviors persist that may adversely affect turtle populations.

Abstract

Patengan and Alam Endah villages located in the Rancabali District South Bandung. Both villages have identical characteristics to the region that most of the people engaged in agricultural with variations in the tourism sector. The identical characteristic make social capital comparation can be done. Differences in the two villages is contained in land tenure wich unlike Alam Endah Village that have private land tenure, Patengan Village are in state land tenure. The field research was conducted in June 2016. The depth interviews were conducted using a semi-structured questioner developed by Social Capital Assessment Tool (SCAT). Research is done by carefully observing the phenomenon using participant observation approach. Research showed that land tenure have effect on social capital (especially on trust, norm, caring and proactive action element) which happened because public concern over restrictions on access to natural resources increase the value of social capital because people tend to give positive responses to avoid conflict. In contrary, a figure that have influence toward natural resources access followed by other society member makes social capital inevitable increase. Key word: Alam Endah Village, land tenure, Patengan Village, social capital
