Phnom Tbeng Natural Heritage Park is a protected area in Cambodia's Northern Plains Landscape, established in 2016 under Sub-decree No.189.
[2] The protected area contains some of the last remaining evergreen and semi-evergreen forest habitats in northern Cambodia and is of high importance for wildlife conservation[3] and is a key area of the upper watershed of the Steung Saen River, a tributary of the Tonlé Sap.
During 2017, a team of researchers set 24 camera traps, in order to better get to know and understand small and medium species of mammals that live in the park.
[4] Wildlife research at PTNHP was made possible thanks to financial support from the Rainforest Trust, the Arcus Foundation, and the U.S.
[5] The Ministry of Environment is set to submit Phnom Tbeng Natural Heritage Park for inclusion on the UNESCO’s World Heritage List in category of Natural Site along with the Anlong Kampi Irrawaddy dolphin conservation area, in the near future.
