Macaque–human interactions and the societal perceptions of macaques in Singapore

TL;DR: The results show that human–macaque conflict exists in Singapore, but that it may not be severe, and human behavior is largely responsible for macaque‐to‐human interactions, and thus could be lessened with management of human behavior in interface zones.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dramatic decline in bat species richness in Singapore, with implications for Southeast Asia

TL;DR: A wider geographical extrapolation over the 21st century indicates that heavy deforestation in progress in Southeast Asia might be expected to lead to extinction of many bat taxa, with upper-bound estimates of regional species losses exceeding 40% and global extirpation anticipated for at least 23% of Southeast Asia’s bat fauna by 2100.
Journal ArticleDOI

Global COVID-19 lockdown highlights humans as both threats and custodians of the environment.

Amanda E. Bates, +346 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report immediate impacts of changes in human activities on wildlife and environmental threats during the early lockdown months of 2020, based on 877 qualitative reports and 332 quantitative assessments from 89 different studies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Status of the long-tailed macaque Macaca fascicularis in Singapore and implications for management

TL;DR: There is an urgent need for wildlife management strategies aimed at minimizing the extent of human–macaque conflict in Singapore, which should include designing appropriate buffers around reserve areas, revised urban development plans, and managing the behavior of people interfacing with macaques.
Journal ArticleDOI

Morphology and somatometric growth of long-tailed macaques (Macaca fascicularis fascicularis) in Singapore

TL;DR: Combined, the results suggest either that statistically significant differences in adult morphology and patterns of growth can occur in presumably reproductively cohesive subspecies, or the Singapore macaques may be taxonomically distinct.
