Bukhara Deer within Its Broken Area - Problems for Species Survival.

Beginn des Artikels:
The endangered subspecies of red deer – bukhara deer (Cervus elaphus bactrianus) IUCN Red Data Book - is unique in several ways, differing morphologically both from other European subspecies of red deer, and from the Asian and American subspecies (wapitoides). This subspecies possesses specific physiological adaptations to the arid conditions of Central Asia, most notably to the very limited supply and quality of food resources.
Our investigations had shown its specificity in behavior and communication, which appeared to be consistent across different ecological conditions and densities. One of the most vivid examples of this specificity is a stable creation of true leks, which is characteristic only for this subspecies of red deer. According to the most recent genetic analyses carried out by our colleagues from Great Britain, it is shown – together with Kashmir and Yarkand deer – to be a monophyletic and ancient clade, close to the common ancestry of elaphoids and wapitoides. These tests were conducted on samples of hair collected in different riparian forests of Amudaria.
As the only true deer species in the arid zone of central Asia, it has always been strictly associated with the riparian forests of river valleys. As the most favorable areas for agriculture in the surrounding desert, these valleys suffer greatly from anthropogenic influences. Being both sedentary and rare, the number of animals and the distribution of bukhara deer reduced greatly in the 70s and 80s. Recently, it has come to be under threat of extinction, as a result of a great decrease in numbers in certain populations, and from the elimination of others.

Sika Deer in Mainland China.

Verlagstext zum Band:
Sika deer, the graceful spotted deer of Japanese and Chinese art, originally were native to Asia from far-east Russia to Vietnam to the islands of Japan and Taiwan. They are widely raised in captivity to supply velvet antler for traditional medicine. They also were introduced to Europe, North America, and New Zealand, where they compete or interbreed with native deer. Sika deer typically occupy lowland hardwood forests with low winter snow depths, where they thrive in sites disturbed by fire, storm, or logging. In high numbers they can severely impact vegetation though overgrazing, stripping bark from trees and damaging crop fields and forest plantations. Their numbers are high in many parts of Japan, moderate in Russia, and reduced or extinct in the wild in China, Korea, Vietnam, and Taiwan. This book explores their basic biology, behavior, and ecology, including management for sport hunting, conservation or recovery of threatened populations, and resolution of conflict with humans in native and introduced lands.
