| Abstract (English): |
To simulate megafaunal (pig, tapir, and elephant) foraging, we cut 1228 saplings in a Sundaic rainforest. In total, 89%–94% of cut stems survived after 13.5 months. About 90% of naturally occurring break scars were at heights ≤1 m, implicating pigs, not elephants or tapirs, as the main source of stem damage in this forest. Abstract in Malay is available with online material. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |

Abstrak: Kami telah mematahkan 1228 batang anak pokok untuk menilai kesan tabiat makan megafauna di hutan hujan tropika Sunda. Selepas 13.5 bulan, kebanyakan batang yang telah dipatahkan (89%–94%) masih hidup. 90% daripada parut patah yang berlaku secara semula jadi berada pada ketinggian ≤1 m, membabitkan babi hutan, bukan gajah atau tapir, sebagai punca utama kerosakan batang di hutan ini.
