Impacts of logging road networks on dung beetles and small mammals in a Malaysian production forest: Implications for biodiversity safeguards

Abstract

We conducted research on the impact of logging on biodiversity of dung beetles and small mammals in a production forest in Temengor Forest Reserve, Perak, Malaysia. This was done to develop such quantitative criteria for Malaysian production forests while paying special attention to the effects of road networks, such as skid trails, logging roads, and log yards, on biodiversity.
