The diversity of non-volant small mammals in gragmented forest and oil palm plantation
Cultivation of oil palm requires an enormous amount of forest to be logged and causes the disturbance in that habitat. It also causes the fragmentation of the forest. A diversity study of non-volant small mammals between fragmented forest and oil palm plantation was conducted in Saremas 2 Plantation...
