This mapping was based on some habitat variable, namely prey availability, NDVI, altitude, slope, water availability, ridge and distance from road. These variables were analyzed by using GIS and principal component analysis (PCA) to get the weight of each variable. The habitat suitability map were reclassified into three suitability class. The result showed that there were 2258.44 ha of low suitability habitat, 2801.67 ha of medium suitability habiat, 3225.84 ha of high habitat suitability and 2244.25 ha of no data.
