This study used  in-depth interviews method to collection data of disturbance. Data collected were analyzed quantitative descriptively. The results showed that the disturbances carried out by long-tailed macaque when entering the residential area are to steal fruit or food at the people’s plantations or the backyard of people’s homes.The forest in the study area does not provide abundant feed and the land that is converted into a building allows long-tailed monkeys to enter residential areas.
