The island, which covering an area of about seven hectares overgrown with typical swamp vegetation of mangrove, currently used as a mooring barge by a company. It turns out this island inhabited by a group of bekantan (proboscis monkeys) which population is estimated at 15, says Amalia Rezeki in Banjarmasin on Wednesday.Proboscis is protected under Government Regulation No. 7 of 1999 and internationally included in the appendix I of CITES (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora).In addition, since 1990 proboscis monkey set as the mascot of South Kalimantan province, said Amalia Rezeki.
