Project Details
| Name | PKHS, a local NGO protection the Sumatran tiger with the rangers of WKNP |
| Description | Since 2005, the Bioparc has been committed in Indonesia with the Program Konservasi Harimau Sumatera (PKHS). The focus is on patrolling and monitoring tiger populations, prey and habitats.PKHS aims to protect the forests to ensure that the tiger has a large territory rich in prey, by accompanying the national park authorities. PKHS teams and national park rangers have been on patrol for more than 50 days and have covered 200 km. They take advantage of these patrols to monitor biodiversity by collecting all possible information: signs of presence, photographic traps or even snares, traps for tigers. The photo traps make it possible to estimate the number of tigers and other species occupying this habitat. In 2021, the cameras confirmed the presence of tapirs, sun bears, elephants, muntjacs, gibbons, macaques, clouded leopards, hornbills... |
