The character of caring for the condition of customary forests is very important so that the preservation of forest resources remains sustainable. Therefore, this research examines the teachings of local knowledge as a system of conserving forest resources, and the role of the Ammatoa indigenous people in preserving forest resources as an effort to build a caring character for the environment. This type of research is qualitative research using a case study approach. This research was carried out in the Ammatoa Customary Forest, Bulukumba Regency. The results of the study show that the Ammatoa indigenous people practice local knowledge consisting of 120 articles which contain procedures for managing the environment and punishments for violators, namely pokok babbalak (serious offence), tangnga babbalak (moderate offence), and cappak babbalak (light offence). © 2023, Thai Society of Higher Eduation Institutes on Environment.
