Bear cuscus in Sulawesi

Sulawesi Bear Cuscus is found only on Sulawesi and the Talaut Islands of Indonesia. They can be found in pairs or small groups of three or four individuals in the upper canopy of lowland tropical rainforests. the Sulawesi Bear Cuscus eats the leaves of many different tree species, but three make up half of the total diet. Young leaves are much preferred, probably because they are easier to digest and contain fewer toxins. However, the bear cuscus prefers mature leaves of mistletoes, which have more protein than the young leaves. A small amount of flowers and unripe fruit (which contains more protein than ripe fruit) are also eaten.

They are arboreal, moving slowly from tree to tree using their prehensile tail and grasping forefeet. A great proportion of the day is spent resting or sleeping, with little time devoted to feeding and grooming and even less to social interactions. It has been hypothesized that activity is spread throughout the day and night, with periods of rest between feeding or other activity. The Red List Category is Vulnerable, due to an ongoing population decline estimated and projected to exceed 30% in a 10 year period, due to the high rate of deforestation using large-scale logging for agriculture. The cuscus has nominaly protected legal status in Indonesia.
