Movements, Home range and Social organization. Population density of the Plantain Squirrel is 5-3 ind/km? in Ulu Mudah Forest Reserve (Kedah, Malaysia) and 8-1 ind/ km? in Kayan Mentarang National Park (East Kalimantan, Borneo), but 244 ind/km? in Krau Wildlife Reserve (Pahang, Malaysia). Home ranges differ between males and females: 0-7 ha in males, with extensive overlaps between males and between males and females; and 1-8 ha in females, with no overlap between them, in Ulu Gombak Forest Reserve. The Plantain Squirrel responds to terrestrial predators with a repeated staccato bark and tail flicking, to which other conspecific squirrels react by climbing upward and remaining quiet. Response to an aerial predator is a soft “chuckle,” unless predator is close, in which case the squirrel gives a “rattle” vocalization. Conspecifics react to the latter by freezing and, if nearby, by also giving a rattle call. This call is used more generally for a close encounter with a terrestrial predator. Snakeselicit squeak alarm calls, causing other squirrels to join in mobbing the snake.
