Chinese Pangolin Changes Local Vertebrate Assemblages and Contributes to Their Interspecific Interactions by Burrowing and Revisitation

Integrative Zoology, Volume 21, Issue 3, Page 499-510, May 2026.
In this study, we systematically analyzed the utilization patterns of Chinese pangolin burrows by sympatric species in Guangdong Province, China, including differences in species composition using burrow mounds and burrow tunnels. We found that repeated visits to burrows by Chinese pangolin promoted the use of burrows by sympatric species, suggesting ...

Translocation and deterrence as tools for conservation and management of Columbian ground squirrels (Urocitellus columbianus) in a national park

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 2, April–June 2026.
Our study evaluates two non‐lethal methods for managing Columbian ground squirrels in Jasper National Park, Alberta, Canada. We demonstrate that translocated squirrels exhibited lower survival than controls and that a deterrence methodology that includes blocking burrows may be an appropriate alternative, especially when combined with other tools ...

Social and ecological influences on dispersal and philopatry in the plateau pika (Ochotona curzoniae) [PDF]

Behavioral Ecology, 1998
Benefits and costs of dispersal and philopatry of the social plateau pika (Ochotona curzoniae) were studied on the Tibetan plateau for 3 years. Although short-lived, plateau pikas live in cohesive family groups that occupy burrow systems in sedge meadow habitat Most (57.8%) plateau pikas were philopatric, and dispersal movements were extremely ...

Spatiotemporal Distribution Patterns of Plateau Foxes and Their Lagomorph Prey in Baqing County, Tibet

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
Our study suggests pronounced spatiotemporal niche differentiation as a mechanism facilitating two mesocarnivores' coexistence, and enhances our understanding of the mechanisms underlying sympatric coexistence on the Tibetan Plateau. ABSTRACT Predation by carnivores is a fundamental driver of species evolution, shaping interspecific spatiotemporal ...

Population dynamics and responses to management of plateau pikas Ochotona curzoniae [PDF]

Journal of Applied Ecology, 2007
Summary Plateau pikas Ochotona curzoniae are considered a pest species on the Tibetan Plateau because they compete with livestock for forage and their burrowing could contribute to soil erosion. The effectiveness of pest control programmes in Tibet has not been measured, and it is not known whether changes in livestock management have exacerbated ...

Genomic Analysis and Population Divergence Driven by Geographic Isolation in Neotetracus sinensis

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
We generated the first chromosome‐level reference genome for Neotetracus sinensis and resequenced populations from the Gaoligong and Wuliang Mountains to investigate divergence across the Hengduan “sky‐island” landscape. Genomic data reveal strong population structure with negligible gene flow and parallel demographic histories shaped by Pleistocene ...

Disturbance Gradients of Plateau Pika (Ochotona curzoniae) Reshape Soil Microbiome Communities in Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau Ecosystems

Land Degradation & Development
The plateau pika ( Ochotona curzoniae ) is recognized as an ecosystem engineer on the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau (QTP). Despite the critical roles that soil microbiomes play in ecosystem functioning, little is known about how the disturbance behaviors of ...

Microbacterium caowuchunii sp. nov. and Microbacterium lushaniae sp. nov., isolated from plateau pika (Ochotona curzoniae) on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau of PR China.

International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2021
Four novel bacterial strains (ST-M6T, L-033, L-031T and Z-333) were isolated from the intestinal contents of plateau pikas (Ochotona curzoniae) collected on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, PR China.

Safeguarding a Flagship Species: Integrated Surveillance of Cross‐Species Pathogen Transmission in Giant Panda Ecosystems

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
Emerging infectious diseases increasingly threaten giant pandas and cohabiting species. This review analyzes pathogen transmission risks from domestic animals, wildlife, and vectors and proposes an integrated genomic surveillance framework for early warning and biodiversity conservation.
