Pangolin Distribution and Predicted Habitat Loss From the Nagmati Dam in Shivapuri Nagarjun National Park, Nepal. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
Chinese pangolin burrows in Shivapuri Nagarjun National Park showed a clumped distribution influenced by slope and NDVI. The proposed Nagmati Dam and reservoir will inundate key pangolin habitats, causing significant habitat loss. The environmental impact assessment of the dam ignored these threats, highlighting the need for urgent reassessment to ...
