Abstract
This research is an example of GIS applications used in the field of conservation and landscape ecology. Sumatran tiger habitat management begins with knowing Sumatran tiger prey distribution. Information on Sumatran tiger prey distribution will be very useful in identifying the suitability of habitat for Sumatran tiger. This study objective to determine the spatial distribution of Sumatran tiger prey in Besitang forest. The method used is to overlay the coordinates of the tiger prey findings with the trigger factors that influence the distribution of Sumatran tiger prey using GIS. The results showed animals prey of Sumatran tiger in the Besitang area occurs mostly in sloping areas with low topography and regions that are relatively far to the road and near to the river
