Corak tubuh (warna) merupakan daya tarik visual yang penting karena memberikan pengaruh terhadap kemudahan dilihat di alam bebas (Zhu, et al 2021). Adapun bentuk badan dan perilaku memerlukan upaya yang lebih besar dalam pengamatan satwa liar, memerlukan waktu yang lebih lama dan mungkin peralatan yang memadai.…”

Interpretation methods in outdoor spaces that can be applied in the GGPNP area are: traveling around, interpretation paths, and on-site panels (Fang, Yamanaka, & Trencher, 2021;Marschall et al, 2017).…”
