Rattus tanezumi
Drawn from open occurrence records in and around Royal Belum State Park, aggregated onto a 25 km grid. A cell is matched by its centre, which can sit up to 16 km outside the boundary, so this covers the surrounding country too.
Occurrence records measure where people looked and found something, which is not the same as where the animal is. This is a relative likelihood, not a probability.
A grid cell is a square of the map, not a sighting: 1 square of 25 km carry records for Oriental House Rat in and around Royal Belum State Park, and the 0 records behind them were collected by other people and published openly. Nothing here counts animals, and a place with more records is not always a place with more animals.
Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park is the atlas place where the Oriental House Rat is recorded, with records concentrating in the Philippines, India, Hong Kong SAR China, South Africa and Palau. This mammal has 928 open records across twelve countries. The atlas map follows the records of the family Muridae where they gather most thickly.
It is the only species with an atlas page recorded in and around Royal Belum State Park.
