Together with its remarkable biodiversity, with 1,352 plants, 128 mammals, 518 birds, 40 reptiles and 23 amphibians species, it is also home to some of the most well- known mountains in Nepal where diverse cultures and peoples reside. This makes it an area of high eco-system sensitivity and the country's top trekking destination. It is here where NTNC pioneered the ICDP model which integrates biodiversity conservation and sustainable development through maximizing community engagement, ownership and opportunity.

It is widely but discontinuously distributed in Nepal. A Pellet sign survey was carried in April 2019 in Lapchi valley of Gaurishankar Conservation Area (GCA) in Nepal to assess the habitat preference of Himalayan musk deer. A total of 11 transects of 16348 m length and 10 m wide was surveyed. Seven Parameters: Elevation, Aspect, ground cover, distance from the water source, crown cover, rock exposure, and distance from settlement/cow sheds were recorded from the location where pellet (toilet) of musk deer were recorded to extrapolate the probable habitat map. We recorded a total of 157 musk deer pellet groups in the study area14.27 ± 2.91. The study concluded that the 38.4% (26.5 km2) area of Lapchi valley is the probable habitat of musk deer. The 2 – test suggested that the distribution of musk deer is significantly associated with elevation and aspect of the location.

  • A Case Study from Nepal
    Language Documentation & Conservation Special Publication No. 13 (July 2017) Documenting Variation in Endangered Languages ed. by Kristine A. Hildebrandt, Carmen Jany, and Wilson Silva, pp. 152-179 http://nlfrc.hawaii.edu/ldc/ 8 http://handle.net/24753 Areal Analysis of Language Attitudes and Practices: A Case Study from Nepal Kristine A. Hildebrandt and Shunfu Hu Southern Illinois University Edwardsville This paper has two aims. One aim is to consider non-structural (language attitude and use) variables as valid in the field of dialect and linguistic geography in an inner Himalayan valley of Nepal, where four languages have traditionally co- existed asymmetrically and which demonstrate different degrees of vitality vs. endangerment. The other aim is an application of modified spatiality as it aligns with speaker attitudes and practices amidst recent and ongoing socio-economic and population changes. We demonstrate that variation in self-reported attitudes and practices across languages in this region can be explained as much with adjusted spatial factors (labeled ‘social space’) as with traditional social factors (e.g. gender, age, formal education, occupation, etc.). As such, our study contributes to a dis- course on the role and potential of spatiality in sociolinguistic analyses of smaller language communities. 1. INTRODUCTION. In a recent paper on sampling in dialectology research, Buchstaller and Alvanides lament that until recently, “The majority of sociolinguistic work [could] be described as spatially naïve, using geographical space merely as a canvas…on to which the results of linguistic analysis [could] be mapped.” (2013: 96). This need for inclusion and testing of different types of spatial factors alongside social ones is increasingly being addressed in regions like the United States and Great Britain.

  • An Assessment on the Welfare Status of Endangered Terrestrial Mammals at Nepal Central Zoo
    AN ASSESSMENT ON THE WELFARE STATUS OF ENDANGERED TERRESTRIAL MAMMALS AT NEPAL CENTRAL ZOO BY RAVEE TANDUKAR In Partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor in Development Studies (BDevS), September 2014 a project work on the title ‘An Assessment on the Welfare Status of Endangered Terrestrial Mammals at Nepal Central Zoo’ has been submitted to Kathmandu University. The research started from the month of June till September, 2014. Summary The conditions at the Central Zoo were found to have improved in the welfare standards for seven endangered terrestrial mammals. Three enclosures failed, namely that of Asian Elephant, One- Horned Rhinoceros, and Striped Hyena. The researcher concludes that immediate improvements of the failed enclosures and translocation of the larger endangered terrestrial mammals to the planned new ‘Open Zoo’ location at Suryabinayak, Bhaktapur, are urgent matters to be addressed. The Central Zoo of Kathmandu is the only place in the country where various native as well as exotic wildlife species can be observed. The Central Zoo is managed by Nepal Trust for Nature Conservation (NTNC) and the only zoo recognized by the Government. Till date no legislation such as Zoo Act or Policy has been established. In the absence of such legislation the zoo has been deprived of clear guidelines and budget allocations to improve its standards. When it comes to captive endangered terrestrial mammals, the need of such legislation is even more pressing. Apart from incidental journalistic write ups in the local media, little research has been conducted into the welfare standards of the animals at the zoo.

  • 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.

I would like to thank WWF and all consortium partners (CARE, NTNC, and FECOFUN) for submitting the updated M&E Plan. The revised M&E Plan is consistent with the approved Annual Work Plan and the Program Description of the Cooperative Agreement (CA). This updated M&E has added/revised/updated targets to systematically align additional earthquake recovery funding added into the award through 8th modification of Hariyo Ban award to WWF to address very unexpected and burning issues, primarily in four Hariyo Ban program districts (Gorkha, Dhading, Rasuwa and Nuwakot) and partly in other districts, due to recent earthquake and associated climatic/environmental challenges. This updated M&E Plan, including its added/revised/updated indicators and targets, will have very good programmatic meaning for the program’s overall performance monitoring process in the future.
