半野生麋鹿秋、冬季粪堆频率分布的研究*

A Study on the Frequency Distribution of Semifree Range Milu Fecal Group Counts during Autumn and Winter

  • 摘要: 通过对江苏大丰麋鹿保护区Ⅰ、Ⅱ放养区内麋鹿粪堆频率分布的系统抽样调查,发现半野生麋鹿在秋、冬季粪堆呈聚集型分布,分布型服从负二项分布、奈曼A型分布和Thomas分布,其中以负二项分布拟合程度最好。造成粪堆聚集分布的主要原因是环境因素的影响,与麋鹿的习性关系不大。在放养区主要生境类型草地和林地中,粪堆均服从负二项分布。粪堆密度林地大于草地,但粪堆聚集指数草地却高于林地。粪堆的聚集强度与鹿群在该生境中的活动类型有关,当麋鹿粪堆在单一生境内服从负二项分布时,粪堆聚集指数与鹿群对该生境的休息利用率之间存在着明显的相关关系(r=0.988,P0.05)。粪堆频数调查显示,秋、冬季大丰麋鹿对林地的利用率高于草地。

     

    Abstract: The negative binomial, Neyman type A and Thomas distributions were fitted to the frequency distributions of the number of fecal groups per plot for semifree range Milu (Elaphurus davidianus)during Autumn and Winter. The results were counted on a systematic sample of 298 and 461 circular plots in 113 ha and 147ha of Da Feng Milu Reserve. The size of sample plots were 10 m2, 20m2 and 30m2. The negative binomial distribution was preferred to the results, the difference between aggregation of individuals was considered to be due to environmental causes rather than social factors. The negative binomial distribution was also suited to the frequency distribution of fecal groups on grassland and woodland in the two areas. The pellet-group density in woodland was higher than that in grassland, but the aggregate index in grassland was higher than that in woodland. These indicated that Milu prefered woodland rather than grassland during Autum and Winter. The individuals on grassland aggregated more closely than those in woodland. The aggregation of individuals of resting groups was higher than that of feeding groups. When fecal groups fitted negative binomial distribution in a habitat, the aggregate index of pellet-groups is relevent to the ratio of resting deer on the same habitat.
