Gharial
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The gharial (Gavialis gangeticus) is a crocodilian of the family Gavialidae that is native to the Indian subcontinent and also called gavial and fish-eating crocodile. As the species has undergone both chronic long term and a rapid short-term declines it is listed as a Critically Endangered by IUCN.
The gharial is one of three crocodilians native to India (the other two are the Mugger crocodile and the Saltwater crocodile). It is one of the longest of all living crocodilians.

Distribution and habitat

Gharials once thrived in all the major river systems of the Indian subcontinent, spanning the rivers of its northern part from the Indus River in Pakistan across the Gangetic floodplain to the Irrawaddy River in Myanmar. Today, they are extinct in the Indus River, in the Brahmaputra of Bhutan and Bangladesh and in the Irrawaddy River.

Conservation

Gavialis gangeticus is listed on CITES Appendix I.
By 1976, the estimated total population of wild gharials in the world had declined from what is thought to have been 5,000 to 10,000 in the 1940s to less than 200, a decline of about 96%. The Indian government subsequently accorded protection under the Wildlife Protection Act of 1972.

Gharial
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The gharial (Gavialis gangeticus) adalah buaya keluarga Gavialidae yang asli  benua India dan juga disebut gavial dan fish-eating crocodile. Sebagai spesies telah mengalami baik jangka panjang  yang kronis dan penurunan jangka pendek yang cepat hingga terdaftar sebagai terancam punah oleh IUCN.
Gharial adalah salah satu dari tiga buaya asli India (dua lainnya adalah the Mugger crocodile and the Saltwater crocodile`).

Distribusi dan habitat
Buaya pernah berkembang di semua sistem sungai utama dari anak benua India, yang mencakup sungai bagian utaranya dari Sungai Indus di Pakistan melintasi dataran banjir ke Sungai Gangga Irrawaddy di Myanmar. Hari ini, mereka punah di Sungai Indus, di Brahmaputra Bhutan dan Bangladesh serta di Sungai Irrawaddy.

konservasi
Gavialis gangeticus terdaftar di CITES Appendix I.
Pada tahun 1976, perkiraan total populasi gharials liar di dunia telah menurun dari apa yang diperkirakan  5.000 hingga 10.000 pada tahun 1940 menjadi kurang dari 200, penurunan sekitar 96%. Pemerintah India kemudian memberikan perlindungan di bawah Undang-Undang Perlindungan Satwa Liar tahun 1972.

False gharial
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The false gharial (Tomistoma schlegelii), also known as the Malayan gharial, or false gavial is a freshwater crocodilian with a very thin and elongated snout. The false gharial is listed as an endangered species by IUCN as the population is estimated at below 2,500 mature individuals.

Distribution and habitat

False gharials are native to Peninsular Malaysia, Sarawak, Sumatra and Borneo, but extirpated in Thailand. In the 1990s, information and sightings were available from 39 localities in 10 different river drainages, along with the remote river systems of Borneo. Apart from rivers, they inhabit swamps and lakes.
Prior to the 1950s, Tomistoma occurred in freshwater ecosystems along the entire length of Sumatra east of the Barisan Mountains. The current distribution in eastern Sumatra has been reduced by 30-40% due to hunting, logging, fires and agriculture.

Conservation

The false gharial is listed on CITES Appendix I.
Steps have been taken by the Malaysian and Indonesian governments to prevent its extinction in the wild. There are reports of some populations rebounding in Indonesia, yet with this slight recovery, mostly irrational fears of attacks have surfaced amongst the local human population.
Yayasan Ulin (The Ironwood Foundation) is currently attempting to manage a wetland area in East Kalimantan which is known to contain the gharials.

False gharial
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The false gharial (Tomistoma schlegelii), juga dikenal sebagai the Malayan gharial, atau  false gavial adalah buaya air tawar dengan moncong sangat tipis dan memanjang.  terdaftar sebagai spesies terancam punah oleh IUCN karena populasi diperkirakan di bawah 2.500 individu dewasa.

Distribusi dan habitat
 asli Semenanjung Malaysia, Sarawak, Sumatera dan Kalimantan, tetapi punah di Thailand. Pada 1990-an, informasi dan penampakan  dari 39 daerah di 10 drainase sungai yang berbeda, bersama dengan sistem sungai di pedalaman Kalimantan. Selain sungai, mereka menghuni rawa dan danau.
Sebelum tahun 1950-an, Tomistoma ada pada ekosistem air tawar di sepanjang Sumatera timur dari  Pegunungan barisan. Distribusi saat ini di Sumatera Timur telah berkurang sebesar 30-40% karena perburuan, penebangan, kebakaran dan pertanian.

konservasi
 terdaftar di CITES Appendix I.
Langkah yang telah diambil oleh pemerintah Malaysia dan Indonesia untuk mencegah kepunahan di alam liar. Ada laporan dari beberapa populasi rebound di Indonesia, namun dengan sedikit pemulihan, sebagian besar ketakutan irasional serangan muncul di antara populasi penduduk.
Yayasan Ulin (The Ironwood Foundation) saat ini sedang berusaha untuk mengelola lahan sawah di Kalimantan Timur yang dikenal mengandung gharials.
