Abstract

Gelatik jawa (Padda oryzivora) is one of endemic birds that its population has been decreasing. For overcoming this problem, one of the solutions is to create a captivity that needs a knowledge of the influence of microclimate to the bird’s behavior in relation to its physiological process and survival. The goal of this research was to identify the relation between the cage temperature and the width of beak opening of gelatik jawa (Padda oryzivora), and their body movement in relation to the change of the cage temperature. The data will be useful for protecting them from their mortality caused by heat stress. The data of the cage temperature, the width of beak opening, and the body movement of the birds were gained through observation. The relation between the cage temperatures and the width of birds’ beak openings were analyzed statistically using regression. Moreover, the animals’ body movement were analyzed descriptivelly. Based on the data gained, the width of beak opening of gelatik jawa (Padda oryzivora) can be predicted based on the height of the cage temperature. The equation was y= -20.366 + 1.327x. It means that the higher temperature of the cage, the wider opening of gelatik jawa (Padda oryzivora) beaks. Furthermore, in high temperatures, the body of the birds shakes frequently.
