摘要
The distribution sites of feces marks of root vole were investigated by eyeballing method. The investigations showed that:(1)There were feces mark or not at the hole of the vole. (2)It distributed mainly at the crotches and the terminals of the channel. (3)Comparison among three kinds of feces mark percentage, the maximum is the percentage at the crotches. The minimum is the percentage at the hole and the middle at the terminals of the channel. The results indicated that the difference of intensity of feces mark distributed in different sites predicated that feces may played an important communication role in territory behavior of root voles.
