摘要
于1997年10月到1999年10月在泰国KhaoYai国家公园对两种同域分布的物种(即豹猫和云豹)进行了研究。使用带诱饵的陷阱捕捉了这些动物,进行麻醉,确定了性别、年龄,并戴上了无线电项圈,对6只雌性豹猫和4只雄性豹猫进行了1-18个月的无线电追踪。豹猫在干旱季节的利用区域大于雨季,雄性利用的区域大于雌性。在夜间和晨昏时节,豹猫活动增加,但是并没有节律性活动。所有豹猫个体在旱季和雨季的活动都相似,但雄性个体的白天活动多于雌性。豹猫的行走距离有性别差异但是没有季节差异;其食物以鼠类为主。分别对1只雌性云豹和1只雄性云豹进行了17个月和7个月的无线电追踪,雌性个体的活动面积为39.4km2,而雄性个体活动面积为42.2km2,核心区都是2.9km2。云豹对半绿林的使用大于其它类型的植被,在晨昏和夜间的活动增加。
The spatial and temporal ecology of 2 sympatric felid species, the leopard cat Prionailurus bengalensis and clouded leopard Neofelis nebulosa, was studied from October 1997 to October 1999 in Khao Yai National Park, Thailand. Felids were captured using baited box traps, were anesthetized, sexed, aged, and fitted with a radio collar. Six female and 4 male leopard eats were radio-tracked for 1 - 18 months. Leopard cats used larger areas during the wet season than dry season and males used larger areas than females. Most leopard cats used vegetation types in proportion to their presence. Leopard cats exhibited arrhythmic activity with increased activity during nocturnal and crepuscular periods. Dry and wet season activity was similar for all leopard cats; however, males showed greater diurnal activity than females. Travel distance for leopard cats during a 24-hour period differed by sex but not season. Murids dominated prey consumed by leopard cats. A female and male clouded leopard were radiotracked for 17 and 7 months, respectively. Area used by the female was 39.4 km^2 , whereas the male used 42.2 km^2 and beth had core areas of 2.9 km^2 . Clouded leopards used semi-evergreen forest greater than other vegetation types. Clouded leopard activity was arrhythmic with increased levels during crepuscular and nocturnal periods. Some conservation aspects for felids in Thailand are discussed .
