Common names: English: Wild or Bactrian camel French: German: Wildkamel Spanish: Russian: Dikiy verblud Chinese: 2. Biological data 2.1. Distribution Wild populations are restricted to 3 small, remnant populations in China and Mongolia:in the Taklamakan Desert, the deserts around Lop Nur, and the area in and around region A of Mongolia’s Great Gobi Strict Protected Area (Reading et al 2000). In addition, there is a small semi-captive herd of wild camels being maintained and bred outside of the Park. 2.2. Population Surveys over the past several decades have suggested a marked decline in wild bactrian camel numbers and reproductive success rates (Zhirnov and Ilyinsky 1986, Anonymous 1988, Tolgat and Schaller 1992, Tolgat 1995). Researchers suggest that fewer than 500 camels remain in Mongolia and that their population appears to be declining (Xiaoming and Schaller 1996). Globally, scientists have recently suggested that less than 900 individuals survive in small portions of Mongolia and China (Tolgat and Schaller 1992, Hare 1997, Tolgat 1995, Xiaoming and Schaller 1996). However, most of the population estimates from both China and Mongolia were made using methods which preclude rigorous population estimation.

  • Bactrian Camel, Two-Humped Camel
    Camelus ferus/bactrianus Common name: Bactrian camel, two-humped camel Local name: Havtagai (Mongolian), Wildkamel (German), Jya nishpa yapung (Ladakhi) Classification: Kingdom: Animalia Phylum: Chordata Class: Mammalia Order: Artiodactyla Family: Camelidae Genus: Camelus Species: ferus/bactrianus Profile: The scientific name of the wild Bactrian camel is Camelus ferus, while the domesticated form is called Camelus bactrianus. The distinctive feature of the animal is that it is two-humped whereas the Dromedary camel has a single hump. DNA tests have revealed that there are two or three distinct genetic differences and about 3% base difference between the wild and domestic populations of Bactrian camels. They also differ physically. The wild Bactrian camel is smaller and slender than the domestic breed. The wild camels have a sandy gray- brown coat while the domestic ones have a dark brown coat. The predominant difference between them however is the shape of the humps. While that of the wild camel are small and pyramid-like, those of the domestic ones are large and irregular. The face of a Bactrian camel is long and triangular with a split upper lip. The Bactrian camel is highly adapted to surviving the cold desert climate. Each foot has an undivided sole with two large toes that can spread wide apart for walking on sand. The ears and nose are lined with hair to protect against sand and the muscular nostrils can be closed during sandstorms. The eyes are protected from sand and debris by a double layer of long eyelashes while bushy eyebrows give protection from the sun. It grows a thick shaggy coat during winter, which is shed very rapidly in spring to give the animal a shorn look.

  • Chacoan Peccary
    Chacoan Peccary Chacoan Peccary Catagonus wagneri conservation strategy Mariana Altrichter1,2, Arnaud Desbiez3, Harald Beck1,4, Alberto Yanosky5, Juan Campos6 1chairs IUCN Peccary Specialist Group, 2Prescott College, 3Royal Zoological Society of Scotland and IUCN SSC CBSG Brazil, 4Towson University, 5Guyra Paraguay, 6Tagua Project field coordinator, Paraguay Summary The Chacoan peccary (Catagonus wagneri), an endemic species of the Gran Chaco ecoregion, is endangered of extinction due mainly to habitat loss and hunting. The only conservation plan for the species was written in 1993. Because the situation continues deteriorating, and the rate of deforestation in the region is currently among the highest in the world, the IUCN SSC Peccary Specialist group saw the need to develop a new conservation strategy. A workshop was held in Paraguay, in March 2016, with representatives of different sectors and range countries. This paper presents a summary of the problems, threats and actions identified by the participants. The other two results of the workshop, a species distribution and population viability modeling, are presented separately in this same newsletter issue. Introduction The Chacoan peccary (Catagonus wagneri) or Taguá, as it is called in Paraguay, is an endemic and endangered species that inhabits the thorn forests of the Gran Chaco of Bolivia, Paraguay, and Argentina. The Gran Chaco is the second largest eco­region in South America after the Amazonia. The species is listed as endangered by the IUCN Red List and in CITES I Appendix (IUCN 2016). In 1993, the entire Chacoan peccary population was estimated to be less than 5000 individuals (Taber, 1991 et al. 1993, 1994) and it has been declining since then (Altrichter & Boaglio, 2004).

  • Reproductive Seasonality in Captive Wild Ruminants: Implications for Biogeographical Adaptation, Photoperiodic Control, and Life History
    Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 2012 Reproductive seasonality in captive wild ruminants: implications for biogeographical adaptation, photoperiodic control, and life history Zerbe, Philipp Abstract: Zur quantitativen Beschreibung der Reproduktionsmuster wurden Daten von 110 Wildwiederkäuer- arten aus Zoos der gemässigten Zone verwendet (dabei wurde die Anzahl Tage, an denen 80% aller Geburten stattfanden, als Geburtenpeak-Breite [BPB] definiert). Diese Muster wurden mit verschiede- nen biologischen Charakteristika verknüpft und mit denen von freilebenden Tieren verglichen. Der Bre- itengrad des natürlichen Verbreitungsgebietes korreliert stark mit dem in Menschenobhut beobachteten BPB. Nur 11% der Spezies wechselten ihr reproduktives Muster zwischen Wildnis und Gefangenschaft, wobei für saisonale Spezies die errechnete Tageslichtlänge zum Zeitpunkt der Konzeption für freilebende und in Menschenobhut gehaltene Populationen gleich war. Reproduktive Saisonalität erklärt zusätzliche Varianzen im Verhältnis von Körpergewicht und Tragzeit, wobei saisonalere Spezies für ihr Körpergewicht eine kürzere Tragzeit aufweisen. Rückschliessend ist festzuhalten, dass Photoperiodik, speziell die abso- lute Tageslichtlänge, genetisch fixierter Auslöser für die Fortpflanzung ist, und dass die Plastizität der Tragzeit unterstützend auf die erfolgreiche Verbreitung der Wiederkäuer in höheren Breitengraden wirkte. A dataset on 110 wild ruminant species kept in captivity in temperate-zone zoos was used to describe their reproductive patterns quantitatively (determining the birth peak breadth BPB as the number of days in which 80% of all births occur); then this pattern was linked to various biological characteristics, and compared with free-ranging animals. Globally, latitude of natural origin highly correlates with BPB observed in captivity, with species being more seasonal originating from higher latitudes.

  • Deer Biology That Will Be Most Relevant to Deer Practitioners, Managers and Landowners
    Introduction The purpose of this guide is to highlight aspects of deer biology that will be most relevant to deer practitioners, managers and landowners. It is not a complete discussion of deer biology for which there are other sources (see Further Info). This guide links to the following guides: Deer Species, Deer Signs, and Deer Behaviour. Appearance all of our wild deer are spotted when born Each species has it’s own characteristic appearance, some have unique features that are visible even in the very young. Size, body shape, detailed colouration and antler shape are useful clues, as are finer details Deer skulls can be easily distinguished from many such as facial characteristics and the appearance of other mammals, they have: the tail area.

  • Handraising Exotic Animals Western Plains
    HANDRAISING EXOTIC ANIMALS WESTERN PLAINS ZOO GENERAL DIRECTIVES: * All neonates (newborn) to be given colostrum for the first 24 - 36 hours where possible. Bovids, cervids, camelids, hippos etc. (order: Artiodactyla) to receive bovine colostrum. Equids, tapir, rhinos etc. (order: Perissodactyla) to receive equine colostrum. * All milk formulas to be gradually increased to 100% strength concentrations as recommended. i.e. Commence at 25% - 50% concentrations supplemented with vytrate, staged up by 25% at 24 hour intervals until 100% is reached. Use pre-boilded water to make up formulas. * Young to be fed 12 - 20% of their bodyweight in milk formula each day, divided equally between feeds. If innadequate volumes of formula are suckled then the neonate is to be tube fed until intake is adequate from the bottle. * Number of feeds per day is determined by species. * Weigh initially and weight gain/loss to be monitored at least weekly. * Routine is extremely important. Feeding times must be set and adhered to. It is usually better for one person to initiate feeding and to introduce other feeders as soon as possible to avoid neonates imprinting on one person. * All young need to be stimulated to urinate and defaecate after each feed by gentle patting - never rub. Ensure they are left clean afterwards. * Hygiene is of great importance. Bottles and teats need to be washed thoroughly and soaked in sterilising solution (Halasept). Utensils are to be rinsed with pre-boiled water before use. Face wipes are not shared with anus wipes etc. Cloths to be washed daily. All young to be left with a clean mouth after the feed (includes chin, lips etc.) * Milk temperature is to be fed at body temperature.
