Identify forests outside the protected area network in the Periyar-Agasthyamalai Corridor that are crucial for conservation of threatened arboreal mammals. Assess the existing protected areas for adequate representation of these species, while also determining current distribution of arboreal mammals in this landscape. Use information generated to formulate site-specific conservation and management plans for these threatened species.

Strategic Direction: 2 Improve the conservation of globally threatened species through systematic conservation planning and action
