Integrative Conservation, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 125-136, March 2026.We collated detections of the sun bear from new and previously published camera trap studies across its range. We then analysed these detections at two different spatial scales to assess the habitat associations and diel activity of this species. We found that the sun bear is tolerant to moderate habitat disturbances. ABSTRACT Degraded tropical forests,
