Borneo has wide land that support high biodiversity. One of them is Tanjung Puting National Park (TPNP), which have biodiversity such as terrestrial mammalian carnivore. Carnivore has a role to maintain its ecosystems. But, there are no data for population density of terrestrial mammalian carnivore. The object of this research is to find out population density of terrestrial mammalian carnivore in Camp Leakey, TPNP, Central Borneo. This research accomplished in September-October 2015 in Camp Leakey. Using line-transect sampling. Data collection was accomplished at 18.00-24.00 Central Indonesian Time (WITA) on eight transects with three times replication by direct surveys and indirect surveys. This research has obtained five species, malayan sun bear (Helarctos malayanus), sunda clouded leopard (Neofelis diardi), leopard cat, and group of civet, like small-toothed palm civet (Arctogalidia trivirgata) and asian palm civet (Paradoxurus hermaphroditus). Population density of each species from the highest to the lowest is 13,5 Individual of leopard cat/km2, 9,84 Individual of malayan sun bears/km2, 4,31 Individual of sunda clouded leopard/km2, and 3,65 Individual of civet/km2. Malayan sun bears, sunda clouded leopards and civets prefer to be in land forest. Leopard cats prefers to be in transition forest.

Abstract We studied the population dynamics of endangered mountain nyala Tragelaphus buxtoni between 2003-2005 in the Bale Mountains National Park. Line-transect sampling and total count methods were used to gather data on demographics and movement patterns. The population's age-group composition was 58% adults, 25% sub-adults, 9% juveniles, 5% calves and 3% unidentified with a female-male sex ratio of 2:1. Population density was found to be significantly different between the two sub-populations (Dinsho Sanctuary and Gaysay/Adelay). A significant difference was found for age-group composition across the two sub-populations except adult females, sub-adult males and calves. The Dinsho sub-population was an isolated group. Separation and containment of the mountain nyala population could have negatively affected their ability to search for habitat requirements and mates from distant areas. The population varied between 830-908 individuals (95% CI), a reduction of 45% from earlier reports. However, the mean population density increased due to contraction of the species' habitat range. We observed a population decrease of 2%-5% per year over the course of our study. Many of the assessed demographic parameters did not significantly change over the three years. This suggests that the decrease in nyala population was not due to random variations in reproduction. Anthropogenic factors such as competition with livestock for forage, habitat encroachment and poaching by the local people might have been partly responsible for the depleted population in our study areas.

Bilou (Hylobates klossii) merupakan satwa primata endemik Kepulauan Mentawai, Sumatera Barat dan ditetapkan sebagai satwa primata dengan status terancam/genting (endangered) berdasarkan kategori IUCN (International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources) tahun 2008. Saat ini, informasi populasi bilou terbaru di Pulau Siberut belum diketahui secara lengkap dan menyeluruh. Penilaian terhadap populasi dijadikan sebagai landasan dalam menentukan strategi konservasi. Penelitian bertujuan mengidentifikasi populasi bilou yang meliputi distribusi populasi, kepadatan individu, kepadatan kelompok, ukuran kelompok, serta komposisi kelompok. Penelitian dilaksanakan di Resort Bojakan, Taman Nasional Siberut, Pulau Siberut, Kepulauan Mentawai, Sumatera Barat pada bulan November 2018 sampai Januari 2019. Pengamatan dan pengukuran parameter populasi bilou dilakukan dengan metode line transect sampling. Total perjumpaan dengan bilou sebanyak 77 individu dengan jumlah 25 kelompok. Nilai kepadatan individu 12,8 individu/km2, dan kepadatan kelompok 4,2 kelompok/km2. Rerata ukuran kelompok bilou di Resort Bojakan 3,08 individu/kelompok. Keberadaan populasi bilou di Resort Bojakan dipengaruhi akibat adanya gangguan aktivitas manusia. Kepadatan populasi bilou di Resort Bojakan lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan penelitian-penelitian sebelumnya di wilayah Pulau Siberut. Persentase kelompok bilou yang memiliki ukuran kelompok lebih dari dua individu lebih tinggi dibandingkan kelompok dengan jumlah dua individu, yang menandakan kawasan Taman Nasional Siberut terutama di Resort Bojakan mendukung pertumbuhan populasi bilou. Proses regenerasi bilou masih terus berlangsung karena jumlah kelompok yang memiliki minimal satu keturunan atau lebih masih cukup banyak. Pemantauan dan patroli oleh pihak Taman Nasional diperlukan untuk memastikan keberadaan populasi bilou di Resort Bojakan.   Kata kunci: primata endemik, bilou, metode garis transek, monogami

A resource selection probability function is a function that gives the prob- ability that a resource unit (e.g., a plot of land) that is described by a set of habitat variables X1 to Xp will be used by an animal or group of animals in a certain period of time. The estimation of a resource selection function is usually based on the comparison of a sample of resource units used by an animal with a sample of the resource units that were available for use, with both samples being assumed to be effectively randomly selected from the relevant populations. In this paper the possibility of using a modified sampling scheme is examined, with the used units obtained by line transect sampling. A logistic regression type of model is proposed, with estimation by conditional maximum likelihood. A simulation study indicates that the proposed method should be useful in practice.

One of the most important sides of life is wildlife. There is growing research interest in monitoring wildlife. Line transect sampling is one of the techniques widely used for estimating the density of objects especially for animals and plants. In this research, a parametric estimator for estimation of the population abundance is developed. A new parametric model for perpendicular distances for detection function is utilised to develop the estimator. In this paper, the performance of the parametric model which was developed using a simulation study is presented. The detection function has non-increasing curve and a perfect probability at zero. Theoretically, the parametric model which has been developed is guar-anteed to satisfy the shoulder condition assumption. A simulation study is presented to validate the present model. Relative mean error (RME) and Relative Bias (RB) are used to compare the estimator with well-known existing estimators. The results of the simulation study are discussed, and the performance of the proposed model shows promising statistical properties which outperformed the existing models. Keywords: detection function, line transect data, parametric model

A double kernel method as an alternative to the classical kernel method is proposed to estimate the population abundance by using line transect sampling. The proposed method produces an estimator that is essentially a kernel type of estimator use the kernel estimator twice to improve the performances of the classical kernel estimator. The feasibility of using bootstrap techniques to estimate the bias and variance of the proposed estimator is also addressed. Some numerical examples based on simulated and real data are presented. The results show that the proposed estimator outperforms existingclassical kernel estimator in most considered cases.
