Bibliometric investigation of the integration of animal personality in conservation contexts
Abstract Consistent individual differences in behavior, commonly termed animal personality, are a widespread phenomenon across taxa that have important consequences for fitness, natural selection, and trophic interactions. Animal personality research may prove useful in several conservation contexts, but which contexts remains to be determined.

东北虎(Panthera tigris altaica)是体型最大的猫科(Felidae)动物之一,是极具代表性的珍稀野生动物。现有研究表明,我国野生东北虎种群遗传多样性较低、近交水平较高。尽管目前我国野生东北虎的数量在逐步增长,但通过人工干预来提高野生东北虎的遗传多样性会更利于其数量的恢复,通过野化放归进行遗传拯救是一种关键策略,但实施遗传拯救之前,必须确定圈养个体与现存野生个体间的遗传关系。采用粪便DNA的高通量测序数据组装了51只横道河子圈养东北虎和13只完达山 ...

We conducted a grouping study on 52 adult musk deer to investigate whether group sex composition modulates aggressive behavior and stress response in captive musk deer. We found that the conflict interactions of all‐male groups were significantly more than those of mixed groups, and compared with the mixed groups, the conflict interactions of all‐male ...

Advancing conservation breeding programs for marine invertebrates
Abstract In the face of ecosystem change and biodiversity loss caused by climate change and other stressors, conservation breeding, or captive breeding, with the aim of reintroduction for wild population recovery, is an emerging tool for preventing species’ extinction and rehabilitating ecosystems.

Eimeria saudiensis represents a genus of apicomplexan parasites capable of inducing coccidiosis in Arabian oryx. Our research concentrated on the morphological and molecular investigation of Eimeria spp. in the captive oryx herd in Oman. The therapeutic and management practices employed at the Mammals Breeding Center were reassessed to diminish ...

本研究对北京动物园1头非洲象交配、分娩、哺育等一系列繁殖行为进行了详细的观察和描述。分析表明影响非洲象繁殖的主要因素有:1)妊娠期间饲养环境内的噪音污染;2)分娩后圈内地面状况;3 )哺乳期的营养供应等。根据研究结果,为动物园非洲象的饲养繁殖提出了几点建议:1)妊娠期在圈内安装监控设备,减少人员走动;2)分娩后可在地面垫草,帮助幼兽尽早站立;3)哺乳期发现雌象消瘦属正常现象 ...

Abstract Measuring area‐based conservation outcomes in tropical forests is challenging due to cryptic human disturbances (e.g., hunting). As a result, comparative studies of management strategies providing quantitative outcomes remain scarce, especially in the Neotropics.

We found the estimated use of tiger bone glue within the last 12 months to be 6.9%. We found a stated motivation of taking TBG to improve health, and by the suggestion of one's social group. We suggest reducing the acceptability of TBG as medicine and encouraging non‐animal‐based medicinal alternatives.

通过对我国特产雉类绿尾虹雉野外种群状况和圈养繁殖状况研究的调查,对其迁地保护现状做了分析和总结。绿尾虹雉圈养繁育难点主要有:圈养与栖息地海拔和气候环境差异较大使圈养个体易患疾病,存活率低;圈养繁殖率低,繁育技术水平有待提高;圈养种群缺少基础建立者,导致近亲繁殖。本文针对以上难点提出了该物种今后迁地保护相应的对策:根据野外生态环境选择圈养场地,建立生态式笼舍和繁育场所;科学地进行繁殖管理,提高繁育水平和繁殖率;建立疾病防预体系和卫生防疫制度;开展技术交流与合作。希望能为今后绿尾虹雉圈养保护提供参考。

We profiled nutritional and physiological markers in captive sifakas, endangered primates from Madagascar, managed in expansive, non‐native forest enclosures. Variation in many markers reflects freely foraged diets and the energy required to maintain homeostasis under more naturalistic conditions.
