The banteng faces severe threats from habitat loss due to agricultural expansion and poaching for bushmeat. While some conservation programs focus on protecting remaining wild populations and their habitats, their numbers continue to decline. Responsible safari tourism can help by providing economic incentives for local communities to protect wildlife and their habitats, and by funding anti-poaching patrols.
