Flora and Fauna Protection
Our HCV area houses unique rare, threatened, and endangered (RTE) species. Our Conservation Team monitors these species through regular patrols in our concession using trap cameras and other tools. These species are well documented for continuous monitoring. PT. BIA strictly prohibits the hunting of these endemic fauna and the illegal exploitation of the local plant life.
