Ethnoprimatology can be defined as the interaction between human and nonhuman primates that share integrated social and ecological spaces through cultural, religious, and customary contexts. Orang Asli community is highly dependent on natural resources around them and utilise animals in their daily life, including primates, for many purposes such as food, medicine, and pets. However, indiscriminate hunting practice and overhunting have caused a major decline in the primate population, including the species with high conservation importance, which may lead to extinction. Hence, this study aims to document the information on primate utilisation by Temuan in Gunung Ledang, Johor, Malaysia, using an ethnoprimatological approach through a semistructured interview with the aid of a questionnaire. The results indicate that Temuan in Gunung Ledang mainly used five species of primates (Macaca fascicularis, M. nemestrina, Presbytis sp., Hylobates lar, and Trachypithecus obscurus) that comprised two families, namely, Cercopithecidae and Hylobatidae, as entertainment and pets. However, respondents acknowledged that these cultural practices rapidly eroded because of the decline in the primate population in their ranging area, thus making it harder for them to spot and hunt the primates. Findings from this study can be used for developing a sustainable action plan that involves Orang Asli toward conservation of primates and preservation of traditional knowledge of Temuan in Peninsular Malaysia.
