Review of the Distribution, Status and Conservation of Musk Deer in China
Folia Zool. – 53(2): 129–140 (2004) Review of the distribution, status and conservation of musk deer in China Yijun ZHOU1, Xiuxiang MENG1,2∗, Jinchao FENG1, Qisen YANG2, Zuojian FENG2, Lin XIA2 and Luděk BARTOŠ3 1 School of Life and Environment Sciences, Central University for Nationalities, 27 Zhongguancun Nan-da-jie, Beijing 100081, China; e-mail:[email protected] 2 Institute of Zoology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, 19 Zhongguancun Road, Beijing 100080, China 3 Ethology Group, Research Institute of Animal Production, P.O.Box 1, 104 01 Praha 10, Czech Republic; e-mail: [email protected] Received 30 December 2003; Accepted 8 June 2004 A b s t r a c t . There are five species of musk deer of the genus Moschus, in China, occurring in about 17 provinces. We estimate the total numbers in China to be between 220,000 and 320,000. In some areas the populations are in decline, and some are close to extinction due to over-hunting and habitat loss or degradation, the former being the primary threat to musk deer populations. To conserve musk deer, in situ protection should be improved, and the present unsustainable forest exploitation in the range areas should be halted. Poaching of musk deer, and smuggling of musk deer products, should be prevented. Domestic use of musk should be restricted. In some areas where musk deer have become extinct or are critically endangered, ex situ protection should be introduced. Musk deer farming should be revised and developed according to biological requirements. Key words: musk deer, Moschus, conservation status, China Introduction Musk deer Moschus spp.

Whole-Genome Sequencing of Wild Siberian Musk
Yi et al. BMC Genomics (2020) 21:108 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12864-020-6495-2 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Whole-genome sequencing of wild Siberian musk deer (Moschus moschiferus) provides insights into its genetic features Li Yi1†, Menggen Dalai2*†, Rina Su1†, Weili Lin3, Myagmarsuren Erdenedalai4, Batkhuu Luvsantseren4, Chimedragchaa Chimedtseren4*, Zhen Wang3* and Surong Hasi1* Abstract Background: Siberian musk deer, one of the seven species, is distributed in coniferous forests of Asia. Worldwide, the population size of Siberian musk deer is threatened by severe illegal poaching for commercially valuable musk and meat, habitat losses, and forest fire. At present, this species is categorized as Vulnerable on the IUCN Red List. However, the genetic information of Siberian musk deer is largely unexplored. Results: Here, we produced 3.10 Gb draft assembly of wild Siberian musk deer with a contig N50 of 29,145 bp and a scaffold N50 of 7,955,248 bp. We annotated 19,363 protein-coding genes and estimated 44.44% of the genome to be repetitive. Our phylogenetic analysis reveals that wild Siberian musk deer is closer to Bovidae than to Cervidae. Comparative analyses showed that the genetic features of Siberian musk deer adapted in cold and high-altitude environments. We sequenced two additional genomes of Siberian musk deer constructed demographic history indicated that changes in effective population size corresponded with recent glacial epochs. Finally, we identified several candidate genes that may play a role in the musk secretion based on transcriptome analysis. Conclusions: Here, we present a high-quality draft genome of wild Siberian musk deer, which will provide a valuable genetic resource for further investigations of this economically important musk deer.

The NP is located on the right bank of the river Lena middle stream. Geographical coordinates of the nominated site: • The utmost north point: 124°55′52′′ east longitude; 60°43′28′′ north latitude; • The utmost south point: 127°16′30′′ east longitude; 60°49′00′′ north latitude; Latitude and Longitude or UTM •The utmost west point: coordinates 125°00′04′′ east longitude; 60 °44′ 49′′ north latitude; • The utmost east point: 128°47′55′′ east longitude; 61 °15 ′57′′ north latitude Area of the site: 485 000 ha. Area of its buffer zone: 868 100 ha. DESCRIPTION: In the NP “Lena Pillars” area the main landscape-environmental factors: the geological texture and relief, the geocryological condition and climate - are characterized with the considerable heterogeneity. Geology and relief The territory of the NP “Lena Pillars” is situated at the northern periclinale of the Aldan anteclises, complicated by the small- amplitude arched uplift and protrusions occupying the large areas. In the park area the sedimentary mantle is represented by unexposed upper Precambrian, exposed Cambrian and Quaternary deposits which lie flat or with hade of layers measured by minutes or rarely by the first degrees. Along the Sinyaya River the lower Cambrian deposits are exposed, and along the Lena and the Buotoma rivers the lower and middle Cambrian deposits are denuded.

Universidade Federal de Pernambuco, 55608-680 Vitoria de Santo Antao — PE, Brazil Abstract The small red brocket deer Mazama bororo is one of the most endangered deer in the Neotropics. The great morphological similarities with three other sympatric brocket deer species, coupled with the fact that they inhabit densely forested habitats complicate detection and prevent the use of traditional methodologies for accurate identification of species. The ability to determine the presence of this endangered species in an area is crucial for estimating its distribution range, and is critical for establishing conservation management strategies. Here we describe a fast and reliable noninvasive genetic method for species identification of Mazama species from faeces.

Gallina & Mandujano
Mongabay.com Open Access Journal - Tropical Conservation Science Vol. 2 (2):116-127, 2009 Special issue: introduction Research on ecology, conservation and management of wild ungulates in Mexico Sonia Gallina1 and Salvador Mandujano1 1 Departamento de Biodiversidad y Ecología Animal, Instituto de Ecología A. C., km. 2.5 Carret. Ant. Coatepec No. 351, Congregación del Haya, Xalapa 91070, Ver. México. E‐mail: <[email protected]>; <[email protected]> Abstract This special issue of Tropical Conservation Science provides a synopsis of nine of the eleven presentations on ungulates presented at the Symposium on Ecology and Conservation of Ungulates in Mexico during the Mexican Congress of Ecology held in November 2008 in Merida, Yucatan. Of the eleven species of wild ungulates in Mexico (Baird´s tapir Tapirus bairdii, pronghorn antelope Antilocapra americana, American bison Bison bison, bighorn sheep Ovis canadensis, elk Cervus canadensis, red brocket deer Mazama temama, Yucatan brown brocket Mazama pandora, mule deer Odocoileus hemionus, white-tailed deer Odocoileus virginianus, white-lipped peccary Tayassu pecari and collared peccary Pecari tajacu), studies which concern four of these species are presented: Baird’s tapir and the white lipped peccary, which are tropical species in danger of extinction; the bighorn sheep, of high value for hunting in the north-west; and the white-tailed deer, the most studied ungulate in Mexico due to its wide distribution in the country and high hunting and cultural value. In addition, two studies of exotic species, wild boar (Sus scrofa) and red deer (Cervus elaphus), are presented. Issues addressed in these studies are: population estimates, habitat use, evaluation of UMA (Spanish acronym for ‘Wildlife Conservation, Management and Sustainable Utilization Units’) and ANP (Spanish acronym for ‘Natural Protected Areas’) to sustain minimum viable populations, and the effect of alien species in protected areas and UMA, all of which allow an insight into ungulate conservation and management within the country.
