“…Overall, the population density of A. melanotis on Salibabu island is higher than Nusa and Bukide Islands. However, the population number of these three islands is very small compared to the population of Sulawesi bear cuscus (A. ursinus) as reported by Wowor et al (2016) who estimated a population density in Tangkoko Nature Reserve with a total area of 8.74 km2 as 20.87 ind/km 2 with an estimated population of 166.75 individuals.…”

Abstract. Repi T, Masy’ud B, Mustari AH, Prasetyo LB. 2020. Population density, geographical distribution and habitat of Talaud bear cuscus (Ailurops melanotis Thomas, 1898). Biodiversitas 21: 5621-5631. The Talaud bear cuscus (Ailurops melanotis) has been reported from Sangihe (the largest island in the Sangihe Island group) and Salibabu (within the Talaud Islands). As an endemic species of Indonesia, this species is rare and there is no certainty regarding its precise geographic distribution or population size. This research aimed to estimate population density and provide the first preliminary data on its geographical distribution, as well as general description of its habitat. Our research shows that A. melanotis occurs on three islands: Salibabu Island, Nusa Island, and Bukide Island, and probably also exists in the Sahandaruman mountain on Sangihe Island. Our population surveys estimate, population density on each island as: Salibabu: 3.69 ± 2.54 ind/km2, with an estimated total population of 28.95 individuals, Nusa Island: was 12.31 ± 2.58 ind/km2, with an estimated population of 19.08 individuals, and Bukide Island: 7.17 ± 1.79/km2, with an estimated population of 10.40 individuals. Information regarding population is a key guiding factor in conservation efforts, where population size is related to extinction risk (threat status) and its geographical distribution, this can help to determine conservation priorities for species or habitats.

“…Cagar Alam Tangkoko memiliki vegetasi yang berbeda-beda pada setiap jalur transek. Meskipun pada seluruh jalur transek memiliki daya dukung habitat yang sama-sama baik, namun pada transek A diketahui memiliki jenis vegetasi yang paling mendukung, terutama karena banyaknya vegetasi yang dapat menjadi sumber makanan bagi kuskus beruang, sehingga temuan kuskus pada jalur A juga lebih banyak dibanding jalur yang lain (Wowor et al, 2016).…”

“…Dataran rendah diketahui lebih banyak vegetasi yang tumbuh, serta dekat dengan lahan pertanian, dan juga kawasan tempat tinggal penduduk. Kondisi yang demikian akan memberikan kuskus lebih banyak pilihan dari segi makanan (Wowor et al, 2016).…”

The cuscus is endemic to Sulawesi which now based on data from the IUCN has an endangered status caused by the destruction of the cuscus' natural habitat as well as poaching. This research was conducted to determine the natural habitat of the cuscus and conservation efforts to maintain the sustainability of the cuscus in Indonesia. This study uses a literature review method. The data obtained was then analyzed quantitatively by calculating a similarity index to find out the similarity of the cuscus habitat and finding solutions for conservation efforts that can be carried out. Based on the results of a literature review, it is known that cuscus can be found in the Sulawesi archipelago, at low, medium and high altitudes. This statement is reinforced by the results of calculating the similarity index which shows an index value of more than 0.50 for each observation location which indicates a fairly even distribution of cuscus. Meanwhile, efforts to preserve the existence of the cuscus are through efforts to appreciate the value of the existence of the cuscus as an endemic animal to Indonesia, taking part in protecting the cuscus' natural habitat and not engaging in poaching, and complying with Indonesian conservation regulations.

Bear cuscus (Ailurops ursinus) which is vulnerable in the IUCN Redlist, is one of the endemic protected animal that lives in the lowland forests of Sulawesi. This research aimed to identify habitat characteristics, diet, and daily activities of bear cuscus in Tanjung Peropa Wildlife Reserve, Southeast Sulawesi. This research was carried out from February to March 2017. Habitat characteristics were identified using vegetation analysis, diet were identified using direct and non-direct observation, and daily activities were identified using ad-libitum sampling. The highest important value index of tree at the Mobula path and Mata Air path were Pisonia umbellifera (28.33 %) and Chisocheton ceramicus (44.72 %), respectively. The vegetation species diversity was high and the vegetation species evenness was distributed. A total of 80 species of plants were recorded which are the potential diet of bear cuscus. The highest percentage parts of plants that bear cuscus consumed were shoot (36.19 %) and young leaves (36.19 %). Bear cuscus daily activities were resting (89.05 %), moving (5.83 %), foraging (2.71 %), and feeding (2.41%). Bear cuscus preferred the C stratum of vegetation for their daily activities.
