Abstract

Wildlife surveys were conducted in Usun Apau National Park (UANP), Sarawak from Oct 2017 to Oct 2020. This was the first attempt to document fauna diversity in Usun Apau National Park on the UANP plateau at 1200-1400 m a.s.l. On 17 September 2020, 10 AM, we observed an orangutan individual, , over a period of one minute at Libut Camp UANP (E: 114039'.546, N: 2052'36.44) at 1,020 m a.s.l. We also recorded four nests and orangutan vocalisation twice. This observation is important for Bornean orangutan conservation as this was the first orangutan sighting in UANP and well outside the species distribution range for in Sarawak.

摘要

2017年10月至2020年10月期间，在砂拉越的乌孙阿保国家公园（UANP）开展了野生动物调查。这是首次尝试记录海拔1200 - 1400米的乌孙阿保国家公园高原上的动物多样性。2020年9月17日上午10点，我们在海拔1020米的乌孙阿保国家公园利布营地（东经114°03′9.546″，北纬20°52′36.44″）观察到一只红毛猩猩个体，持续时间为一分钟。我们还记录到四个巢穴，并两次听到红毛猩猩的叫声。这一观察结果对婆罗洲红毛猩猩的保护具有重要意义，因为这是在乌孙阿保国家公园首次发现红毛猩猩，且该地点远超出了砂拉越地区该物种的分布范围。
