The park located along the Bukit Barisan mountain range, has a total area of 3,568 km², and spans three provinces: Lampung, Bengkulu, and South Sumatra. Together with Gunung Leuser and Kerinci Seblat national parks it forms a World Heritage Site, Tropical Rainforest Heritage of Sumatra.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Tropical Rainforest Heritage of Sumatra )〕 ==Flora and fauna== The national park stretching along the Bukit Barisan mountain range is in average only 45 km wide but 350 km long. The northern part is mountainous with its highest point at Gunung Pulung (1,964 m), while its southern section is a peninsula.〔 It is covered by montane forest, lowland tropical forest, coastal forest and mangrove forest.〔Ministry of Forestry of Indonesia: ("Bukit Barisan Selatan National Park" ), retrieved 18 December 2013〕 Plants in the park include Nipa palm, ''Casuarina equisetifolia'', ''Anisoptera curtisii'' and ''Gonystylus bancanus'', as well as Sonneratia, Pandanus, Shorea and Dipterocarpus species. Large flowers in the park include the ''Rafflesia arnoldii'', ''Amorphophallus decus-silvae'', ''Amorphophallus titanum'' and the world's largest orchid the ''Grammatophyllum speciosum''.〔 The park is home to many endangered and threatened species, including: * Sumatran Elephant (about 500 animals, or 25% of the total remaining population of this subspecies live in the park) * Sumatran Striped Rabbit (most recent records of this poorly known species have been from the park) * Sumatran Rhinoceros (an estimated 60-80 Sumatran rhinos live in the park; approximately the same number live in Gunung Leuser National Park, and when combined the two parks account for the majority of this species' population) * Sumatran Tiger (approximately 40 adult tigers or 10% of the remaining Sumatran tigers live in the park). Other animals in the park are the Malayan tapir, siamang, Sumatran surili, sun bear and lesser mouse-deer.〔 There are over 300 species of bird in the park, like the critically endangered Sumatran Ground-cuckoo.〔WWF: ("Projects: Bukit Barisan Selatan" ), retrieved 18 December 2013〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bukit Barisan Selatan National Park」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
