Talking Indonesia Podcast: Changing Human-Tiger Relations in Sumatra

In this episode of Talking Indonesia, Tito Ambyo chats with Imam Ardhianto, Chair of the Department of Anthropology at Universitas Indonesia, whose research on the cosmopolitics of human-tiger relations draws on fieldwork in Sumatra. Together, they discuss how ancestral guardian tigers, were-tigers, and ‘outsider’ tigers are understood — and how those categories are shifting as the forest itself changes.

This episode was produced by NYSEAN Partner, Indonesia at Melbourne.
