KOTA KINABALU: Sabah’s endangered Bornean banteng (wild cattle) is becoming highly threatened due to habitat loss, fragmentation and heavy poaching, according to a study.
The Endangered Species Research by a team of scientists and conservationists from Danau Girang Field Centre (DGFC), Cardiff University and Sabah Wildlife Department, studied herd demography, sexual segregation and the effects of forest management using camera trap photographs from six forest reserves in Sabah.
