Abstract

Bull is the mascot of the Baluran National Park (Situbondo, East Java Province). However, during the last decade population of bull (Bos javanicus d'alton) tend to decrease and almost endangered. This study used GIS to produce suitability habitats map of bull at Baluran National Park. Habitat suitability determined using four variables (slope, digital elevation map, land cover and distance from water source). Thematic layers produced from four variabels, and a suitability map was developed using overlay and scoring map. Result showed that bull suitability habitat map reached scores between 13-40, Baluran bull encounter points were 44 points each contained in a score: 29 (1 point), a score of 30 (6 points), 31 (4 points), 32 (6 points), 33 (8 points), 34 (8 points ), 35 (5 points), 36 (4 points) and 37 (2 points).
