Currently,&nbsp; their distribution&nbsp; is&nbsp; limited&nbsp; to Ujung Kulon National Park&nbsp; (UKNP) of&nbsp; Indonesia. Natural disasters, disease, poaching, encroachment, and competition are threats&nbsp; facing Javan rhino’s population, hence creating pockets of habitats outside&nbsp; the UKNP was necessary and&nbsp; should be based on&nbsp; scientific&nbsp; studies of&nbsp; javan&nbsp; rhino utilization distribution and habitat selection in UKNP as the natural habitat. The objectives of the study were to determine&nbsp; the utilization distribution of Javan rhino and&nbsp; its habitat characteristics and determine&nbsp; javan rhino habitat selection within UKNP.&nbsp; The research&nbsp; indicated&nbsp; that Javan rhinos highest use of areas comprised of swampy shrub (w = 2.197) and shrub (w = 2.012), relatively open habitat (w = 4.233), flat area (w = 1.313) and slightly </em><em>sloping areas (w = 1.007), lowland (w = 1.346), close to river (w = 1.087), close to road network (w = 1.395), close to coasts/beaches (w = 1.862), close&nbsp; to wallowing areas (w = 3.709), and close&nbsp; to rumpang (w = 3.783).&nbsp; The results suggested&nbsp; that&nbsp; javan&nbsp; rhino&nbsp; showed&nbsp; selection and preferences&nbsp; for&nbsp; its habitat.</em></p&gt;}, number={1}, journal={Jurnal Manajemen Hutan Tropika}, author={Santosa, Yanto and RahmatU Mamat and PrasetyoLilik Budi and KartonoAgus Priyono}, year={2013}, month={Apr.}, pages={31-38} }
