Abstract

Birds provide various environmental benefits, including serving as tourist attractions in certain areas. Concerns over environmentally unfriendly tourist behaviors threaten bird communities, necessitating educational activities. Avitourism interpretation is an eco-friendly tourism approach that educates visitors on the importance of bird conservation in nature. This study aims to identify bird species and their distribution that have the potential to serve as interpretation objects for avitourism in the Mandalika Special Economic Zone. This study used the Mackinnon Species List method for bird data collection and literature review to determine potential objects for avitourism interpretation. Data analysis was conducted using descriptive-quantitative analysis. Based on the findings, 37 bird species were identified as having potential for interpretation as objects. These include bird species with high conservation status, endemic birds, birds with unique morphological characteristics, migratory birds, birds associated with cultural significance, and birds with the highest encounter frequencies. 65% of bird species identified as interpretation objects are distributed along the Novotel Mangrove trail. Based on avitourist preferences, the recommended trail for interpretation is the Novotel Mangrove trail for all categories of avitourists, particularly beginners with a preference for birds with unique morphological features and high encounter frequencies. Meanwhile, for intermediate and advanced avitourist categories, the Gerupuk Mangrove, Songgong Mangrove, Merese Plantation, and Merese Hill trails are also recommended because they feature endemic bird species, species with high conservation status, and migratory birds that can only be found in those trails.

Abstract

The Critically Endangered Cacatua sulphurea abbotti is a unique subspecies of cockatoo, endemic to a single tiny Masakambing Island in Indonesia. Data procurement on the status and distribution of their wild population is urgently needed to determine the best conservation strategy for this species. Data were collected annually from 2008–2018 using a direct roost count method in a roosting tree. Only 10 cockatoos were recorded in 2008, but the number increased to 22 birds in 2018 (a 42.86% increase in a decade). The population was distributed across about 71% of the total area of the island, concentrated in the north-western part with a density of 1.56 (~2 birds/km²) in 2008, which increased to 3.44 (~3 birds/km²) in 2018. The zero-trapping policy enforced by the local government was likely effective in preventing population decline, although the population remains vulnerable due to nesting failure, presumably low genetic quality, and habitat destruction.

Abstract

Southern Cassowary (Casuarius casuarius) is  a seed disperser of North Australia and Southern Papua lowland forest ecosystem. Despite its dominant distribution in Southern Papua, there is a lack of information regarding its population and habitat characteristics. Due to its high sensitivity, the southern cassowary is rarely seen across the forest, yet the signs of its presence (feces and footprints) are abundant. This study analyzed the distributions, population, and habitat characteristics of the southern cassowary’s in Sota and Wanggo Resort, Wasur National Park, Southern Papua. Maximum Entropy results showed that its distribution focused on the northeastern area of Wanggo Resort and several points north of Sota Resort. Using fecal distance sampling, this study found that the southern cassowary population density in Wasur National Park areas was 0.8 ind/km2, primarily in lowland forests. The area corresponds to the variables that most influence the southern cassowary, which are NDVI, annual precipitation, and distance to the road. These findings underscore the urgency of local stakeholders to pay specific attention to lowland forests in Wasur National Park.
