Mamberamo Foja Wildlife Reserve

Mamberamo Foja Wildlife Reserve is a large protected area on New Guinea, in Indonesia's Papua Province.

It covers an area of 16,610 km2,[1] and extends along the Mamberamo River and its tributaries from the foothills of the Central Range to the Pacific Ocean.

[2] The reserve follows the eastern bank of the Mamberamo and includes the Foja Mountains, which reach an elevation of 2193 meters.

The majority of the reserve is in the Northern New Guinea lowland rain and freshwater swamp forests ecoregion, while the portions of the Foja range above 1000 meters elevation are in the Northern New Guinea montane rain forests ecoregion.

At a two-day seminar on 7 and 8 November 2014 organized by the Yayasan Lingkungan Hidup, a local NGO, villagers requested that the government convert the wildlife sanctuary to a national park.
