半野化状态下华南虎的繁育技术研究

Study on Breeding Technology of South China Tiger under the Semi-natural Condition

采取半野化模式规划建立华南虎驯养繁育研究基地,并就华南虎饲养环境、虎舍设计、食物营养、疾病防治等方面进行研究。制作的多功能通道,有效解决了对华南虎实行检查检疫、疾病治疗、体重测量和调配转移等方面的难题,减少了因此而进行麻醉的风险。引进的373号雌性和387号雄性一对华南虎,在2010年10月21日至2011年11月2日期间,成功繁殖3胎共6只幼崽(每胎2只),其中5只成活,1只死亡,繁殖率达100%,成活率83.3%。实践证明:半野化模式圈养的华南虎,疾病较少,野性较强,生长发育更为正常。

South China Tiger Breeding Research Base was established in Shaoguan, where tigers were bred under the semi-natural condition. In this paper, many research were did on the South China tiger, such as rearing environment, cage design, nutrition of diet, disease control and prevention etc.. We designed and manufactured a multi-function channel, with which, much difficult was avoided in course of physical examination, weigh and treat- ment of diseases. Besides, it makes transferring without narcotizing the tigers become a reality. Practice shows that the South China tiger which were bred under the condition of semi-natural are more health, more savagery, and get a better development than that breeding in cage. A couple of South China tiger （No. 373 female and No. 387 male） which were introduced from Fujian Province have 3 times propagation during October 21,2010 to November 2, 2011. Six cubs （2 cubs each time） were obtained and fire cubs survived. The reproduction rate is 100% and livability is 83.3%
