The speaker, Miss Eng I Sum is a graduate student of Universiti Tunku Abdul Rahman. She took
her Bachelor Degree of Science (Hons) in Biotechnology and currently pursuing her master study
at the same university. Her research is on habitat use of small carnivore in Malaysia with emphasis on microhabitat analysis and population size. The fine-scale habitat features, which is known as microhabitat, is species-specific because each species has a preferred microhabitat to survive and reproduce. Analyzing the microhabitat of small carnivores is useful to predict the potential portion of a habitat of a given species is more likely to occur. Also, by using the capture-recapture method, the population size of the small carnivores can be estimated. All of this information will provide a baseline data for future conservation work of small carnivores.
