Nest Characteristics and Prospect of Orangutan (Pongo pygmaeus morio) Corridor Establishment in Menamang Forest, East Kalimantan Indonesia

Research was done to obtain data and information about nest characteristics and potency of orangutan corridor establishment. Data were collected by establishing line-transect placed perpendicular to Menamang river between June and November 2012. Nest pattern was classified into four patterns. Meanwhile, nest age was divided into five types of stages: A, B, C, D, and E. Overall, we had made 20 transects with total length 6006,6 m. We had found 69 nests during survey. We recorded that 72,46% orangutans built one nest on one tree. Nest on the main stem is the most abundant position in study site. We recorded two nests which were on stage A and B. But, nests on stage E were more common. Orangutan used to build nest 10-19 m in height. Menamang forest is a one of Kutai Landscape areas which used by Pongo pygmaeus morio as its habitat. Nowadays, Kutai Landscape condition is not solid. It is caused by fragmentation due to palm oil plantation, forest plantation, and settlement. Menamang Forest located in right and left of Menamang River is potencial for orangutan corridor. This corridor allow orangutan to travel between two patches of forest. It also connect forest patch in outside protected area with protected area (Kutai National Park). Those results above give important information that orangutan is still active on using Menamang Forest as habitat. Corridor establishment requires collaborative management among stakeholders. Besides that, adaptive corridor must be considered.
