Mount Pock Forest Reserve is a protected forest reserve in Semporna District of Tawau Division, Sabah, Malaysia.[2] It was designated as a Class 1 Protection Forest by the Sabah Forestry Department in 1984. Its area is 7,804.8 hectares (78.048 km2).[3] The reserve consists of steeply sloping terrain. The forest on lower slopes has been impacted by logging and conversion of land for agriculture. Oil palm plantations surround the reserve.[1] The size of the reserve has decreased since its initial gazetting. In 2012, 1,388 ha (13.88 km2) of the Mount Pock Reserve was reclassified as state land as this area, along with parts of other reserves, have been home to indigenous communities.[4]
