Five camera traps to photograph Javan tigers, he added, was in office in Jember TNMB Hall, but need special preparation for installing the tool in the area of 58 thousand hectares TNMB.
"Installation of camera traps to address concerns that people who considered that the Javan tigers are extinct, but some evidence such as droppings, footprints, and the Java tiger scratches found several years ago in Meru Betiri," he explained.
Bambang hoped the five camera traps can be installed later this year, provided there are no significant technical obstacles in the installation of cameras to track the rare animals.
"Actually, the exact time of installation of camera trap is the dry season because a lot of wildlife to water sources for drinking, so the installation of cameras can be localized," he added.
