What can ANB achieve?
We can give support to active conservation programs on Java. The Javan Species Recovery Programme (JaSpeR) currently investigates the last distribution areas of the Javan warty pig, the impact of hunting pressure and is carrying out solutions to protect the species. At the same time ANB analyses the “pureness” of the last remaning populations.
