| Summary: | Zoos, commonly found in urban areas, act as ex-situ conservation areas that
benefit conservation not only through direct actions such as reintroduction and
captive breeding, but also indirectly. Instilling conservation awareness to the general
public has a great impact in educating about animals, their behavior, habitat, and
most importantly, why they need to be conserved. In the midst of urban hustle and
bustle, conservation areas stand as a home for the animals that reside in them, with
of course a limited area, unlike the original habitat of the animals in the wild. Many
failures have been encountered in significant animal welfare issues in zoos, raising
questions about the national commitment to the care and management of animals in
zoo conservation areas. This study aims to identify the criteria and indicators of
national and international guidelines within the scope of the landscape immersion
component as a conservation concept to see the gap between the two guidelines. The
Director General of Forest Protection and Nature Conservation Regulation No.P.6
Year 2011 as the current guideline in granting zoo accreditation was compared with
AZA Accreditation Standard 2023 & Animal Care Manual in measuring the level of
achievement of measures, models, and specifications in a comparative evaluation.
The discrepancy between national and international guidelines is a reflection of the
imperfections of zoos in Indonesia which is also supported by the factual conditions
of zoos in Indonesia that have been accredited A and B by the Indonesian Ministry
of Environment and Forestry |
