Leopard on the Mountain Halimun Banten

The population of the leopard (Panthera pardus) in forest conservation Halimun Salak Mountain National Park area of Lebak, Banten province, now increased to 56 from the previous tail head 53.

Panthera pardus, is a member of the Felidae familia and the smallest of the four "Big Cats" in the Panthera the other three being the Lion, Tiger, and Jaguar. Once distributed across eastern and southern Asia and Africa, from Siberia to South of Africa, the leopard's range of distribution has decreased radically because of hunting and loss of habitat. It is now chiefly found in sub-Saharan Africa; there are also fragmented populations in Palistan, India, Sri lanka, Indochina(vietnam, Thailand, Laos, Burma, CambodiaMalaysia, Indonesia, and Ch. Because of its declining range and population, it is listed as a "Near Threatened".


The growing population of leopard is certainly quite encouraging because it turns out a leopard can still breed in the Mountain Halimun.

Their habitats scattered in Mount Endut, Mount Gede, Mount Bongkok, which is also the Halimun Salak Mountain National Park Area.





The habitats Leopard in Mount Halimun that now under protection of Taman Nasional Gunung Halimun Salak.

Mount Sinabung Volcano Erupts Again

Sinabung Mountain located in the Karo district, North Sumatra erupted twice, overnight. Residents of 14 villages around the volcano were evacuated.

Previously, the community Sinabung did not expect the mountain will erupt as it gets information from officers Climatology Meteorology and Geophysics Agency (BMKG), that the mountain is still in a safe condition. But suddenly erupts.

Sinabung having an altitude of 2460 meters above sea level began to show its activity by removing the black smoke on Saturday (28 August 2010) yesterday morning.

Because dormant for hundreds of years, many analysts do not predict it, so impressed by a sudden eruption and the government is not ready.
