Project Details
| Name | OFORA Foundation, conservation plan for the Javan leopard |
| Description | The Javan leopard (Panthera pardus melas) is endemic to the island of Java in Indonesia and is in danger of extinction. Estimated at less than 320 individuals, the wild population of the Javanese leopard suffers mainly from the disappearance of forests. The Javan Leopard occupies the tropical forests, mountains and dry deciduous and scrub forests in the east of the island. Human-animal conflicts are also considered a major threat to the species, especially due to population growth and agricultural expansion. In 1992, a decree from the Minister of Forestry designated Ujung Kulon as a National Park (UKNP), covering an area of 78,619 ha of land and 44,337 ha of sea. OFORA is active in the conservation of wildlife, including the Javan Leopard. Among the many other species represented are the Javan rhinoceros, the Indian muntjac, the wild boar, the crocodile, the large-flying fox and various species of primates. For the Javan leopard, the NGO's goal is to collect data on the species in order to better determine its population size, to mitigate human-animal conflicts and to keep its habitat as comfortable as possible. |
