Siamang (Symphalagus syndactylus) venture to the ground in Sungai Yu Ecological Corridor, Pahang

Abstract

Here we reported the first record of camera trap images for the Department of Wildlife and National Parks (PERHILITAN) of siamang venturing on the ground, walking with two legs on the ground with its arms upright. These images of siamang venturing on the ground were obtained during the wildlife survey conducted in Sungai Yu Ecological Corridor, Pahang, from February 2017 until July 2017 (Figure 1). The camera trapping method was used in the study area for three months to determine the diversity of mammal species. A total of 28 species of mammals were detected using camera traps within the study site.
