Forage Species and Nutrition Among Reintroduced Banteng (<i>Bos javanicus</i> d'Alton, 1823) in Salakphra Wildlife Sanctuary and Khao Kiew-Khao Chompoo Wildlife Sanctuary, Thailand. [PDF]
Dietary management is an important factor affecting the health and survival of critically endangered wildlife. The natural habitat showed a significant seasonal difference which was also higher than in introduced habitat. Reintroduced banteng exhibit dietary flexibility and adaptability to different natural habitats.
