Abstract The excavation of Chinese pangolin ( Manis pentadactyla ) is expected to alter habitat heterogeneity and thus affect the functioning structure forest ecosystems. In this study, bioturbation on soils in three regions (Heping, Tianjingshan, Wuqinzhang) across Guangdong province was quantified. Overall, a mean 2.66 m 3 ·ha −1 83.1 2 burrows bare mounds, respectively, excavated by pangolin; disturbed had significantly lower water content P, C, available N concentrations, but higher bulk...
The burrow microhabitats created by burrowing mammals, as a hotspot for biodiversity distribution in ecosystems, provide multiple critical resources many other sympatric species. However, the cascading effects of on animal community assemblages and interspecific interactions are largely unknown. During 2020-2023, we monitored 184 Chinese pangolin (Manis pentadactyla) burrows using camera traps to reveal utilization patterns commensal We totally recorded up 57 species, with 19 mammal 32 bird...
Identifying species distribution patterns and threatened factors is essential for wildlife conservation. For the critically endangered Chinese pangolin, most studies have emphasized negative human interference ignored effect of environmental suitability positive intervention on altering patterns. We took Guangdong Province as research area obtained census data pangolin. Combined with five types variables, including climatic, geographical, human, soil vegetation, we used algorithms in BIOMOD2...
Abstract Background Pleistocene climate fluctuations have strongly modified species genetic diversity and distributions. The Chinese pangolin ( Manis pentadactyla ) has been recognized as a critically endangered animal due to heavy poaching trafficking. However, the effect of on spatial distribution remains largely unknown. Here, we combined whole genome sequencing data, analysis complete mitochondrial genomes, large amount occurrence data from field surveys infer ancestral demographic...
Food hoarding and pilferage in rodents may be regulated by intense competition between sympatric species that have similar habitats, diets activity, but studies exploring this remain rare. Here, we used semi-natural enclosures to investigate food-hoarding cache interactions Korean field mice (KFM) ( Apodemus peninsulae ) Chinese white-bellied rats (CWR) Niviventer confucianus ). KFM CWR diets, habitat nocturnal the smaller larder scatter hoards larger hoard only. We found harvest,...
Unprotected areas with endangered species generally face severe human disturbance. Domestic dogs are a special form of disturbance and sympatrically distributed critically Chinese pangolins in remote mountainous regions Guangdong, China. Conflicts habitat utilization between domestic have rarely been evaluated, yet these conflicts might result decline population viability the wild. To address how affect (Manis pentadactyla) spatiotemporal niches, we used camera traps to obtain information on...
Anthropogenic and climatic factors affect the survival of animal species. Chinese pangolin is a critically endangered species, identifying which variables lead to local extinction events essential for conservation management. Local chronicles in China serve as long-term monitoring data, providing perspective disentangle roles human impacts climate changes extinctions. Therefore, we established generalized additive models identify leading with historical data from 1700-2000 AD mainland China....
Abstract The flagship species conservation strategy is widely practiced in nature reserves. However, few studies have quantitatively explored whether the current functional zoning adequately conserves habitats of other species. To examine this problem, we selected Tangjiahe, Xuebaoding, and Wanglang national reserves southwest China tested protective efficiency giant panda ( Ailuropoda melanoleuca ) on a local herbivore—Sichuan takin Budorcas taxicolor tibetana zoning. We predicted that...
Abstract Spatial contradictions between nature conservation and social development are prominent in the integration optimization of reserves (NRs) China. Due to restrictions from farmland “red line” policy territorial spatial planning, scattered urban areas distributed within NRs form many “skylights”. Perforating alters their shape continuity may have negative effects on long‐term conservation. Through remote sensing data, we identified “skylights” Guangdong Province, This study evaluated...
The Indian pangolin (Manis crassicaudata) stands out among the four surviving species of Asian pangolins, being sole present in Pakistan and listed as endangered owing to trafficking illicit commerce. In study, we explored population status existing suitable habitats Nowshera district, Pakistan. We employed line transect method confirm presence subsequent estimation. a survey effort 156 km2, total 56 signs were recorded within research area. Amongst signs, 46 burrows (living (53.57%) feeding...
