Anoa, banteng and babirusa are ungulate species found in Indonesia, and all are threatened with extinction. These species are also the focus of the Action Indonesia Global Species Management Plans (GSMPs) – an international collaboration working to protect these endangered animals. Over 50 institutions make up this partnership, combining the skills and resources of experts in the zoo community and in situ conservationists to achieve stable and secure populations of these species.

To achieve demographically and genetically healthy ex situ populations of these species, the GSMPs have produced cooperative breeding recommendations, as well as provided training to facilitate the transfer of animals between Indonesian zoos. In situ projects have been supported to protect these species in the wild, for example babirusa surveys on the island of Buru, and community outreach projects on Sulawesi. Awareness raising, and generating interest in the conservation of anoa, banteng and babirusa, is another key role of the GSMPs.
