When a giant Ficus stupenda fruited in the Trus Madi Forest Reserve in August 2020 the fallen figs attracted  a Bornean Mountain Ground Squirrel Dremomys everetti and a Mountain Treeshrew Tupaia montana to the feast.

Both of these ground dwelling mammals are  only found in cloud forest habitat in Borneo. In Borneo cloud forest starts at around 900 m altitude although this can vary quite considerably depending on the topography.  Only two species of strangling figs are known to survive in cloud forest, Ficus sumatrana and Ficus stupenda.
