The results showed that the orangutan population density was 0.002 individuals / km2 or 2.348 individuals / 10ha, the highest IVI was Hayun Dolok (Syzygium sp.) with 50.39%, and the trees which mostly used by orangutan as a nest was Syzygium sp. with the number of 4 nests found in the tree (66.67%).
