“…The cuscus population density in this study was lower than the other study on Obi Island, which found that the cuscus density of the phalanger genus on the island was 25 individuals/ha [22]. Another research on cuscus populations in the Arfak Mountains Nature Reserve, whinch also stated higher densities for the Northern common cuscus (P. orientalis), the ground cuscus (P. gymnotis) and the common spotted cuscus (S. maculatus), spesifically with a density value of 67 individuals/ha, 17 individuals/ha, and 11 individuals/ha [23].…”

Cuscus is a marsupial mammal endemic to the eastern part of Indonesia. Populations and their habitats are under pressure due to economic development, population growth and utilization of forest resources. So far, studies on cuscus ecology have mainly focused on protected habitats or conservation areas, this study aims to identify and analyze populations and predict the distribution of cuscus in non-protectes area which is PT Wijaya Sentosa. This research conduct in November 2020 until January 2021 in several land cover categories. The methods used in this study include literature and secondary data studies, field observations using strip-transect and camera trap techniques, interviews using purposive sampling techniques. This study found nine individuals of cuscus from direct observation with strip-transects and two individuals of cuscus from camera trapping. The ground cuscus population (P. gymnotis) had the highest abundance and density, while the common spotted cuscus (S. maculatus) population owned the lowest values. The population structure dominates by male sex and adult age class, and no female sex and young age class were found. Cuscus was more commonly found solitary in the line of observation and not found in every line. The shape of the distribution pattern of the cuscus population at PT Wijaya Sentosa is cluster/aggregated, determined from the value of the dispersion index and the ratio of variance to mean. The most common ground cuscus was found in the 2018 and the 2013 logging area (LOA).

“…Hence, food outside the forest area is likely to be exploited by the animals. This result is lower compared to the estimated population in Obi Island (Tamalene et al 2019) and Arfak Mountains Nature Reserve, which was relatively abundant (Sinery 2022).…”

Cuscus (Spilocuscus maculatus) in captivity that were given a dominant fruit diet needed additional feed from their natural habitat because of the higher nutritional potential and fiber components. This study aims to determine the palatability of cuscus to the feed based on organic value. An experimental method was used, consisting of 4 treatment groups: 100% banana (Musa paradisiaca) as control, 70% banana mixed with 30% matoa (Pometia pinnata) leaves, 70% banana mixed with 30% ironwood (Pongamia pinnata) leaves, and 70% banana mixed with 30% crickets (Gryllus bimaculatus). The results showed that banana was the most preferred feed ingredient, either alone or as a supplementary feed mixture. In terms of quantity, its mixture with matoa leaves had a higher consumption level than ironwood leaves and crickets. The consumption level of organic matter was higher in the treatment with 100% banana than in other treatments. This information will help support ex-situ and in-situ conservation programs formulated by the government and other parties, including the community. Keywords: cuscus, feed, organic matter, palatability, Spilocuscus maculatus

Kuskus adalah fauna marsupial dari Australia yang termasuk ke dalam keluarga Phalangeridae (Tamalene et al, 2019) dan tergolong sebagai fauna langka endemik dengan persebaran terbatas pada bagian timur Indonesia seperti Maluku, Sulawesi, Papua/Irian Jaya, Pulau Timor (Darenoh et al, 2019), Australia, serta Papua New Guinea (Kasi et al, 2019).…”

The cuscus is endemic to Sulawesi which now based on data from the IUCN has an endangered status caused by the destruction of the cuscus' natural habitat as well as poaching. This research was conducted to determine the natural habitat of the cuscus and conservation efforts to maintain the sustainability of the cuscus in Indonesia. This study uses a literature review method. The data obtained was then analyzed quantitatively by calculating a similarity index to find out the similarity of the cuscus habitat and finding solutions for conservation efforts that can be carried out. Based on the results of a literature review, it is known that cuscus can be found in the Sulawesi archipelago, at low, medium and high altitudes. This statement is reinforced by the results of calculating the similarity index which shows an index value of more than 0.50 for each observation location which indicates a fairly even distribution of cuscus. Meanwhile, efforts to preserve the existence of the cuscus are through efforts to appreciate the value of the existence of the cuscus as an endemic animal to Indonesia, taking part in protecting the cuscus' natural habitat and not engaging in poaching, and complying with Indonesian conservation regulations.
