History
In the winter of 2009/2010, the regency suffered from flooding, which saw some 80 percent of the forest in Tanggamus severely damaged. Landslides occurred in the district of Semaka and the flooding drowned several elephants including one within the protected Bukit Barisan Selatan National Park and another at the Way Kerap dam in Tanggamus.
Bukit Barisan Selatan National Park is a National Park in the area. A Tropical Forest World Heritage Site, Bukit Barisan has a total area of 3,568 km2.
The district has an area of 4,654.96 square km with a population density of around 140 people/square km, and was inaugurated on 3 January 1997, based on Law Number 2 of 1997.
