Our sanctuary is a haven for endangered birds and animals living in the forest on the slopes of Mt Batukaru in central Bali. It is home to leaf monkeys, macaques and many different types of birds.
Five nearby villages and nine farmers’ groups have joined the project, and introduced traditional regulations ensuring the safety of wildlife within this protected zone. It’s the first wildlife sanctuary in Bali established by private enterprise. The sanctuary takes in part of the island’s largest remaining forest, and spans an area covering 5km in radius from the famous Besikalung Temple.
We have released dozens of birds into the sanctuary, including white-vented mynahs and peaceful doves. We’ve also planted trees and are monitoring the condition of the forest, which borders the UNESCO world heritage-listed Jatiluwih Rice Terraces.
We will soon start work with UNESCO on a project to protect the subak – the 1,000-year-old traditional farming and irrigation system, which is the engine room behind these picture-postcard rice terraces.
