运用红外相机技术首次记录白化豪猪

First Record of Albino Porcupine(Hystrix Brachyura)by Camera Traps in Baotianman National Nature Reserve

宝天曼以古老繁茂的原始森林及丰富独特的野生动植物资源在同纬度居全国之首位,素有“天然的物种基因库”“中州绿色明珠”之美誉。为促进河南内乡宝天曼国家级自然保护区野生动物资源保护与管理,本研究于2015年4月在内乡宝天曼国家级自然保护区开始利用红外相机技术对区内陆生大中型兽类和地面活动鸟类进行了监测。2022年9月4日,于内乡宝天曼保护区葛条爬林区红外相机中拍摄到白化豪猪,根据所获得的野生个体影像资料信息确定为成年豪猪个体,这为河南省白化动物研究增添新的证据,对了解白化豪猪物种在区域的分布、栖息环境、行为等调查奠定基础,完善了内乡宝天曼保护区野生动物资源本底资料,对野生动物长期监测研究和自然保护区管理提供了参考数据。

Baotianman ranks first in the country with its ancient and lush Old-growth forest and rich and unique wild animal and plant resources at the same latitude,known as the“natural species Gene pool”and“Zhongzhou green pearl”.In order to promote the protection and management of wildlife resources in the Neixiang Baotianman National Nature Reserve in Henan Province,this study began using infrared camera technology to monitor large and medium-sized terrestrial mammals and ground active birds in the area in April 2015.On September 4,2022,an albino porcupine was captured using an infrared camera in the Getiao Climbing Forest Area of Neixiang Baotianman Nature Reserve.Based on the obtained wild individual image information,it was determined to be an adult porcupine.This added new evidence to the study of albino animals in Henan province,laid the foundation for understanding the distribution,habitat environment,behavior,and other investigations of albino porcupine species in the region,and improved the background information of wild animal resources in Neixiang Baotianman Nature Reserve,This provides reference data for long-term monitoring and research of wildlife and management of nature reserves.
