Animal utilization in traditional community life is an integral part of traditional knowledge itself. This research aims to reveal the Hatam people's traditional knowledge about the utilization of animals in their lives. The method used is the exploratory survey method. The respondents were determined purposively using the snowball sampling technique. The results showed that there are at least 55 species of animals commonly used by the Hatam people. Based on the forms of utilization, the animals can be divided into six groups: consumption, traditional medicine, specific meanings, traditional technology and arts, significant value, and traditional purposes. Wild animals are most widely used for the living needs of the Hatam people. The traditional hunt that is limited and the communal land ownership system (ulayat system) practiced by the Hatam people have indirectly helped preserve and ensure the availability of wildlife for the Hatam people's needs. In addition to being a form of documentation of Hatam people's traditional knowledge, the results of this research also have significance for the development of science especially in the field of ethnozoology. The form of interaction between Hatam people and animals revealed in this research can also serve as a reference for designing development policies related to the presence of Hatam people in the Arfak mountains.

<p><em>This research aim to document traditional knowledge (indigenous knowledge) of the Hattam tribe in exploiting animals as traditional drug, in which the observation was done on the animal type, way of exploiting, and also on other culture and knowledge related to pattern of exploiting animals as drug in the life of the tribe.

Kolam air panas War Aremi, adalah kolam Air Panas yang terdapat di Kampung Matatun Distrik Kebar, Papua Barat. Bakteri Termofilik tumbuh pada suhu lebih dari 45oC. Bakteri Termofilik menghasilkan enzim yang bermanfaat dalam dunia industri. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian eksploratif yang bertujuan untuk mengisolasi bakteri termofilik dari Kolam Air Panas War Aremi di Kampung Matatun, Distrik Kebar, Kabupaten Tambrauw, Papua Barat dengan menngunakan Metode Tuang (Pour Plate) Dari hasil penelitian diperoleh tiga isolat bakteri termofilik dari sampel air panas, dan 4 isolat dari sampel sedimen. Berdasarkan hasil pengecatan gram dan pengamatan morfologi sel, ketujuh isolat bakteri termofilik yang  berhasil diisolasi adalah merupakan kelompok bakteri gram positif dengan morfologi sel berbentuk sel batang. Berdasarkan hasil pewarnaan gram, pengamatan morfologi sel dan karakterisasi biokimia, ketujuh isolat bakteri termasuk genus Bacillus.
