These populations were wiped out during the last ice-age, except for chamois that are located in the Apennine and the Pyrenees mountain ranges. When the glaciers melted away, about 10,000 years ago, another Chamois migration from Asia led to a re-population of Eastern and Central Europe, except for Scandinavia and the British Islands. 08e-1 U.S. Forces Europe Hunting, Fishing, and Sport Shooting Program Guide to Hunting in Germany As a true mountain animal, Chamois lived mainly in regions with rocks and steep cliffs and outside the forest. With the increasing extension of forest on the former taiga landscape, Chamois became restricted to Alpine areas. In this sense, “Alpine” means regions above the forest line. These were mainly the Carpathians, the Tatras, the Dinarids, the Alps, the Apennines, and the Pyrenees. Aside from alpine regions, Chamois have also been introduced successfully to some parts in Europe (Schwarzwald and Elbsandsteingebirge, Germany), and to New Zealand. The chamois is a member of the family Bovidae. Chamois is a very distinct genus, with no close relatives in the world of cloven hoofed game. The Serau and the Goral, both in Central Asia, and the Snow Goat in North America are considered the closest relatives.

  • Serologic Surveys for Natural Foci of Contagious Ecthyma Infection
    FI.NAL REP.ORT (R.ESEARCH) State: Alaska Cooperators: Randall L. Zarnke and Kenneth A. Neiland Project No.: W-21-1 Project Title: Big Game Investigations Job No.: l8.1R Job Title: Serologic Surveys for Natural Foci of contag1ous Ecthyma Infection Period Covered: July 1, 1979 to J~~? ~0, 1~80 SUMMARY Contagious ecthyma (C. E. ) antibody prevalence in domestic sheep and goats in Interior Alaska du~ing 1978 was quite low (7-10%). This suggested a low level of transmission of the virus among these species during this time period. C. E. antibody prevalence in Dall sheep increased .from 30 percent in 1971 to 100 percent in 1978. This suggested an increased level of transmission to, and/or among, these animals during this period. Following a C.E. epizootic in a band of captive Dall sheep in 1977, antibody prevalence was 80 percent in this group of sheep. Less than l year later, prevalence had dropped to 10 percent in the ·same band. Thus it appeared that antibody produced in response to this . strain of C.E. is short-lived. Antibody was also detected in 10 of 22 free­ ranging muskoxen taken by sport hunters on Nunivak Island in 1978. Detectable antibody levels were not found in any of 19 muskoxen captured on the island in 1979. No antibody was found in a small number of captive muskoxen from Unalakleet. Several of the captive muskoxen were ·known to have been infected with C.E. within 1 to 2 years prior to the time of sampling. This further substantiates the belief that anti­ body produced in response to infection by the Alaskan strain of C.E.

  • Infectious Diseases of Saiga Antelopes and Domestic Livestock in Kazakhstan
    Infectious diseases of saiga antelopes and domestic livestock in Kazakhstan Monica Lundervold University of Warwick, UK June 2001 1 Chapter 1 Introduction This thesis combines an investigation of the ecology of a wild ungulate, the saiga antelope (Saiga tatarica, Pallas), with epidemiological work on the diseases that this species shares with domestic livestock. The main focus is on foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) and brucellosis. The area of study was Kazakhstan (located in Central Asia, Figure 1.1), home to the largest population of saiga antelope in the world (Bekenov et al., 1998). Kazakhstan's independence from the Soviet Union in 1991 led to a dramatic economic decline, accompanied by a massive reduction in livestock numbers and a virtual collapse in veterinary services (Goskomstat, 1996; Morin, 1998a). As the rural economy has disintegrated, the saiga has suffered a dramatic increase in poaching (Bekenov et al., 1998). Thus the investigation reported in this thesis includes ecological, epidemiological and socio-economic aspects, all of which were necessary in order to gain a full picture of the dynamics of the infectious diseases of saigas and livestock in Kazakhstan. The saiga is an interesting species to study because it is one of the few wildlife populations in the world that has been successfully managed for commercial hunting over a period of more than 40 years (Milner-Gulland, 1994a). Its location in Central Asia, an area that was completely closed to foreigners during the Soviet era, means that very little information on the species and its management has been available in western literature. The diseases that saigas share with domestic livestock have been a particular focus of this study because of the interesting issues related to veterinary care and disease control in the Former Soviet Union (FSU).

Sheep were responsible for all sympatricly. We investigated if the release of sheep (Ovis encounters in which the two species came closer than 50 m aries) onto alpine pasture in Switzerland affected chamois to each other. The encounters were brief, body contact (Rupicapra rupicapra) activity budgets, local population never occurred, they were not concentrated at saltlicks and size and spatial distribution. We also evaluated the risk of chamois mainly ended them. The results suggest that the transmission of Mycoplasma conjunctivae (causing a presence of sheep had little effect on the chamois. However, contagious eye disease) from sheep to chamois by competition between the two species could still be occur- examining if the two species had close contact with one ring over a longer time scale. Finally, we found that the risk another. We carried out the study in an alpine valley of inter-specific transmission of IKC through direct body containing two adjacent areas: one containing sheep contact is likely to be low, but the risk through indirect (Fochsenflue) and one where sheep were excluded means (flies or aerosols) remains.

  • Accounting for Intraspecific Variation Transforms Our Understanding of Artiodactyl Social Evolution
    ACCOUNTING FOR INTRASPECIFIC VARIATION TRANSFORMS OUR UNDERSTANDING OF ARTIODACTYL SOCIAL EVOLUTION By Monica Irene Miles Loren D. Hayes Hope Klug Associate Professor of UC Foundation Associate Professor of Biology, Geology, and Environmental Science Biology, Geology, and Environmental Science (Chair) (Committee Member) Timothy Gaudin UC Foundation Professor of Biology, Geology, and Environmental Science (Committee Member) ACCOUNTING FOR INTRASPECIFIC VARIATION TRANSFORMS OUR UNDERSTANDING OF ARTIODACTYL SOCIAL EVOLUTION By Monica Irene Miles A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements of the Degree of Master of Science: Environmental Science The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga Chattanooga, Tennessee December 2018 ii Copyright © 2018 By Monica Irene Miles All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT A major goal in the study of mammalian social systems has been to explain evolutionary transitions in social traits. Recent comparative analyses have used phylogenetic reconstructions to determine the evolution of social traits but have omitted intraspecific variation in social organization (IVSO) and mating systems (IVMS). This study was designed to summarize the extent of IVSO and IVMS in Artiodactyla and Perissodactyla, and determine the ancestral social organization and mating system for Artiodactyla. Some 82% of artiodactyls showed IVSO, whereas 31% exhibited IVMS; 80% of perissodactyls had variable social organization and only one species showed IVMS. The ancestral population of Artiodactyla was predicted to have variable social organization (84%), rather than solitary or group-living. A clear ancestral mating system for Artiodactyla, however, could not be resolved. These results show that intraspecific variation is common in artiodactyls and perissodactyls, and suggest a variable ancestral social organization for Artiodactyla.

  • Regulation of Annual Weight Cycles in Reindeer and Other Cervids
    Regulation of annual weight cycles in reindeer and other cervids MORTEN RY G Ryg, M. 1983: Regulation of annual weight cycles in reindeer and other cervids. Polar Research 1 n.s., 249-257. Seasonal changes in weight, food intake and metabolic rate are characteristic of reindeer and other northern ungulates. This article reviews relationships between endocrine and weight cycles in reindeer and other cervids, and the effect of manipulations with endocrine cycles upon the weight cycle. It appears that the secretions of most endocrine glands change throughout the year, either as a result of nutritional changes or of an inherent seasonal rhythm. It is suggested that the weight and metabolic cycles are secondary to an appetite cycle that is hormonally regulated. The hormonal control may include several hormones: sex steroids, thyroid hormones, and prolactin. Morren Ryg, Zoofysiologisk institutt, Postboks 1051 Blindern, Oslo 3, Norway.
