Studying collective animal behaviour with drones and computer vision

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, Page 2229-2259, October 2025.
Abstract Drones are increasingly popular for collecting behaviour data of group‐living animals, offering inexpensive and minimally disruptive observation methods. Imagery collected by drones can be rapidly analysed using computer vision techniques to extract information, including behaviour classification, habitat analysis and identification of ...

Genetic Resilience of a Once Endangered Species, Tibetan Antelope ( Pantholops hodgsonii ) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Abstract Population reduction is generally assumed to reduce the population’s genetic diversity and hence its ability to adapt to environmental change. However, if life history traits that promote gene flow buffer populations from such impacts, conservation efforts should aim to maintain those traits in vulnerable ...

Survival Risk Analysis for Four Endemic Ungulates on Grasslands of the Tibetan Plateau Based on the Grazing Pressure Index

open access: yesRemote Sensing
Ungulates are essential for maintaining the health of grassland ecosystems on the Tibetan plateau. Increased livestock grazing has caused competition for food resources, threatening ungulates’ survival.

Modern wildlife conservation initiatives and the pastoralist/hunter nomads of northwestern Tibet

open access: yesRangifer, 2004
In 1993 the Tibet Autonomous Region (TAR) of China established the 300 000 km2 Chang Tang Nature Preserve on the northwestern Tibetan plateau, an action precipitated by rapidly diminishing populations of chiru (Tibetan antelope) and wild yak. Some 30 000

Streptococcus pantholopis sp. nov., isolated from faeces of the Tibetan antelope (Pantholops hodgsonii)

open access: yesInternational Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2016
Two bacterial strains were isolated from faecal samples of Tibetan antelopes. The isolates were Gram-stain-positive, catalase-negative, coccus-shaped organisms that were tentatively identified as representing a novel streptococcal species based on their morphological features, biochemical test results and phylogenomic findings.
