Faecal Particle Size in Free-Ranging Proboscis Monkeys, Nasalis larvatus: Variation between Seasons [PDF]

Folia Primatologica, 2018
Reducing the size of food particles is crucial for herbivores. Seasonal dietary changes are known to influence animals’ chewing efficiency. Proboscis monkeys (Nasalis larvatus) are foregut fermenters, with a high chewing efficiency allowing them to achieve very fine faecal particles.

Fecal parasite risk in the endangered proboscis monkey is higher in an anthropogenically managed forest environment compared to a riparian rain forest in Sabah, Borneo.

PLoS ONE, 2018
Understanding determinants shaping infection risk of endangered wildlife is a major topic in conservation medicine. The proboscis monkey, Nasalis larvatus, an endemic primate flagship species for conservation in Borneo, is endangered through habitat loss,

Distribution and conservation of the proboscis monkey (Nasalis larvatus) in Kalimantan, Indonesia

Biological Conservation, 2000
The proboscis monkey Nasalis larvatus is endemic to the island of Borneo. A review of the species' distribution reveals that it occurs throughout Kalimantan, the Indonesian part of Borneo, from the coastal areas to the headwaters of probably all major rivers. Proboscis monkeys are more widely distributed than has been thought previously, and were never

Illegal Wildlife Trade in a Tourism and Biodiversity Hotspot

Sustainable Development, Volume 33, Issue 6, Page 9106-9122, December 2025.
ABSTRACT There are clear connections between tourism, development, and sustainable use—particularly in biodiversity hotspots, where tourists may unknowingly purchase souvenirs made from protected wildlife. This issue is explicitly recognized in the Sustainable Development Goals, including SDG15, Life on Land, and SDG16, Peace, Justice, and Strong ...

Scouting with drones to increase efficiency of locating wild pigs for removal

Wildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 49, Issue 4, December 2025.
Our goal was to determine if locating wild pigs with thermal cameras mounted on unmanned aerial vehicle technology, drones, just prior to ground and aerial shooting efforts could increase removal rates of invasive wild pigs. Results suggest that scouting with drones can increase removal rates under a variety of conditions. Abstract Effective management

Predictors of Baboon Sleep Site Selection in Gorongosa National Park

American Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 187, Issue 4, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Objectives This research aimed to understand how sleep site selection compared to other study sites in baboons living in a low‐predator density, highly seasonal environment. We compared baboon troops in two distinct habitat types with different seasonal influences within the park, one that flooded annually and one that did not.
