This project seeks to protect a critical 16-hectare parcel on the Tompotika Peninsula of Sulawesi, Indonesia, that occupies a key strategic position in the corridor connecting protected maleo (Macrocephalon maleo, CR) nesting ground to non-breeding forest habitat. This acquisition also safeguards important habitats for species endemic to Sulawesi, including the Tonkean macaque (VU) and Dian’s tarsier (VU).
