2005年6~7月,我们在新疆昆仑山西部的一处藏羚羊繁殖地,对一个雌性藏羚羊的迁徙种群进行了研究.整个调查区域的海拔是4 500~5 000 m,植被覆盖率小于5%,主要植被是垫状驼绒藜(Ceratoides compacta).根据研究结果,我们估计在本产仔季节,共有4 000~4 500头雌性藏羚羊迁徙聚集到一个1 200 km2的区域内,集中产仔地面积约为350 km2.产仔的高峰期是在6月18日~7月7日,其间只有40%的成年雌性产仔,这可能和2004年冬西藏阿鲁盆地的降雪量较大导致藏羚羊在交配期和怀孕期身体条件较弱有关.这个区域的雌性藏羚羊迁徙自西藏的西部,在5月下旬至6月上旬之间到达该区域,然后在7月上旬开始返回.研究区域内的狼、赤狐和大型猛禽是主要的捕食者,但是出现的频次很少.研究区域内大部分藏羚羊成体和幼仔的死亡和天敌捕食没有关系.我们对藏羚羊主要采食的植物的营养成分进行分析,没有发现这个区域和其南部其他区域的差异,所以食物可能不是藏羚羊迁徙的主要原因.躲避捕食者、躲避传播寄生虫病的昆虫干扰、或者是避开牧民和家畜,这些因素都有可能导致藏羚羊雌性迁徙到这个区域产仔.基于本次研究,我们建议新疆和田地区能够对这个产仔地进行严格保护,禁止产仔期的人类干扰,同时有必要考虑建立一个大型保护区,或者和相邻保护区联合起来进行管理.
2005年6~7月,我們在新疆昆崙山西部的一處藏羚羊繁殖地,對一箇雌性藏羚羊的遷徙種群進行瞭研究.整箇調查區域的海拔是4 500~5 000 m,植被覆蓋率小于5%,主要植被是墊狀駝絨藜(Ceratoides compacta).根據研究結果,我們估計在本產仔季節,共有4 000~4 500頭雌性藏羚羊遷徙聚集到一箇1 200 km2的區域內,集中產仔地麵積約為350 km2.產仔的高峰期是在6月18日~7月7日,其間隻有40%的成年雌性產仔,這可能和2004年鼕西藏阿魯盆地的降雪量較大導緻藏羚羊在交配期和懷孕期身體條件較弱有關.這箇區域的雌性藏羚羊遷徙自西藏的西部,在5月下旬至6月上旬之間到達該區域,然後在7月上旬開始返迴.研究區域內的狼、赤狐和大型猛禽是主要的捕食者,但是齣現的頻次很少.研究區域內大部分藏羚羊成體和幼仔的死亡和天敵捕食沒有關繫.我們對藏羚羊主要採食的植物的營養成分進行分析,沒有髮現這箇區域和其南部其他區域的差異,所以食物可能不是藏羚羊遷徙的主要原因.躲避捕食者、躲避傳播寄生蟲病的昆蟲榦擾、或者是避開牧民和傢畜,這些因素都有可能導緻藏羚羊雌性遷徙到這箇區域產仔.基于本次研究,我們建議新疆和田地區能夠對這箇產仔地進行嚴格保護,禁止產仔期的人類榦擾,同時有必要攷慮建立一箇大型保護區,或者和相鄰保護區聯閤起來進行管理.

A migratory population of female Tibetan antelope or chiru was studied on its calving ground in the western Kun lun Mountains, Xinjiang in June - July 2005. It was estimated that 4 000 - 4 500 females were in the 1 200 km2 calving area but most births were concentrated in 350 km2. The habitat at 4 500 -5 000 m in elevation had vegetation coverage of less than 5%, principally the dwarf shrub Ceratoides compacta. Young were born 18 June -7 July with a peak 24 June -3 July. Only about 40% of adult females had young, a low fecundity possibly the result of heavy winter snows leading to poor physical condition. Wolf, red fox, and birds of prey killed a few chiru but predators were scarce; most mortality was unre lated to predation. Females arrived at the calving grounds in late May and early June from the west of Tibet, and by early July started their return migration. It remains unclear why chiru migrate to that site. Analysis of chiru food plants showed no marked difference in nutritive values at this season between the calving grounds and the southern range. Escape from predators, parasitic insects, and people with their livestock may all have a role. Based on the study, we suggest that the main calving ground requires strict protection from disturbance, and a large reserve in the region needs to be established.
