Protected areas play important roles for protecting many
endangered species in Indonesia. However, very limited information
regarding roles of protected areas and non-protected areas for
supporting the habitat of less-concerned carnivores in Java, leopard
cat (Prionailurus bengalensis javanensis). We aim to assess the
relative roles of non-protected areas for the habitat of this cat on the
highly fragmented and populated island of Java. We develop species
distribution modelling, using Maxent by integrating various sources
of presence data of this species and environmental data. Our finding
confirms that leopard cat can life in various habitat types but mainly
patchy forest areas. While most of the protected areas are suitable for
the habitat of this smallest cat on Java, the non-protected areas
provide much larger areas for its habitat (66.8 %). Our findings
highlighted the importance of maintaining connectivity among
habitat patches in non-protected areas, habitat protection using
current government policy on high conservation value forest and
essential ecosystems areas.
