Phnom Thnout-Phnom Pok Wildlife Sanctuary
Phnom Thnout-Phnom Pok Wildlife Sanctuary (Khmer: ដែនជម្រកសត្វព្រៃភ្នំត្នោត-ភ្នំពក) is a 42,097 ha protected area in northern Cambodia, located in Siem Reap province. The area was formally protected as a wildlife sanctuary in August 2017. The area is supported by Our Future Organization, with the conservation program developing out of the BeTreed ecotourism social enterprise first established in 2013.[1]
More than 70 species have been recorded at the site,[2] and the area is of particular importance for a number of endangered species including banteng, green peafowl, and pileated gibbon.[3] The protected area is under threat from hunting (especially snaring), logging and illegal land clearance for agriculture and speculation.[4][5][3]
