Sumatra are known as a home for 5 endemic rats. Almost all of them remain uncertain because of lack of research on them. Our work on "Ecological and Conservation Status of Sumatran Poorly-Known Endemic Rats" is a small effort to get better understanding on them and trying to figure it out effective effort to increase their survival.
