Abstract

Long-tailed macaque (Macaca fascicularis) is one of the primates that can coexist with humans, but the use of land into human settlements can lead to reduced habitat for long-tailed monkeys and cause monkeys to disturb humans. This study was conducted to determine the disturbances of long-tailed macaque (Macaca fascicularis)in Tumuk Manggis and Tanjung Mekar Villages, Sambas District, West Borneo. This study used  in-depth interviews method to collection data of disturbance. Data collected were analyzed quantitative descriptively. The results showed that the disturbances carried out by long-tailed macaque when entering the residential area are to steal fruit or food at the people"™s plantations or the backyard of people"™s homes.The forest in the study area does not provide abundant feed and the land that is converted into a building allows long-tailed monkeys to enter residential areas.
