Impact of technogenic transformation of northern taiga land-scapes on mammalian population
Abstract Studies of the mammalian population in the area of operation of a large mining enterprise located in the northern taiga subzone of Yakutia have been conducted. A total of 2,334 cone-days and 3,000 trap-days are accumulated, post-hunting censuses of game species are taken. The mammalian faun...
