AN AMBIGUOUS PERCEPTION OF SUMATRAN ORANGUTANS (Pongo abelii) BY LOCAL COMMUNITY IN TANGKAHAN, LEUSER ECOSYSTEM, INDONESIA
The interaction between the local community and orangutans is often perceived as mere conflict. Here, we delve into the intricacies of the local perceptions of orangutans by employing semi-structured interviews as a part of an ethnoprimatological approach. Our focus is on the Tangkahan ecotourism area, the Leuser ecosystem, Indonesia. Respondents were selected through convenience sampling. There are 16 respondents, the majority is Batak Karo ethnicity. Our findings reveal a complex and ambiguous local perception towards orangutans, encompassing both positive and negative aspects. In some cases, orangutans are perceived as pests to durian crops and potentially dangerous. In other cases, orangutans are also perceived as human resemble, attractions for tourism, and deserving of protection. We also found some folklore tells that orangutans are human relatives. The positive values of orangutans are likely influenced by ecotourism activities that actively involve the local community in management and development efforts

EFFEKTIVITAS TEKNIK PENEBANGAN TERARAH DENGAN BANTUAN TALI DI HUTAN RAKYAT
Directional felling is a technique that directs fallen trees in a predetermined direction to minimize damage to residual stands and understory plants and facilitate subsequent stages of timber handling. One of the felling techniques used in private forest harvesting was the rope-assisted directional felling technique. The study aimed to analyze and evaluate the effectiveness of the rope-assisted directional felling technique in private forests. The study was conducted in a private forest managed with an agroforestry system in Probolinggo, East Java. The number of sampled trees was 31 trees. The sampled trees were felled to the predetermined directions: to a stretched rope between two spar trees or the safe area. Felling errors, hang-ups, and the presence of barber chairs were used to assess the effectiveness of the rope-assisted felling technique. The average diameter of the felled trees was 23.4 cm and 20.8 m in height. The ropes-assist directional felling technique produced a hang-up tree of 19.35% of the total felled trees. Directional felling using ropes made fallen trees from close to the opposite direction of the natural felling direction. The ropes-assisted felling technique made all felled trees fall in the predetermined direction without producing barber chairs, but still causing hang-ups
