Description
Summary:Abstract. Aim. The aim of the work is to develop large mammals populations estimate methods, and development of science-based measures to prevent a further decline of their numbers in Russia.Location. Daghestan and ungulate of the CentralAsia, Mongolia and south SiberiaMethods. Methods and field data processing for all large mammals species were similar, as all ungulates species have similar life style and their life cycles. Field data collecting were done by routing method and fixed points.Results. It is estimated current biological resources potential, revealed numbers fluctuation, formulated and proved the main threats for large mammals of Daghestan and ungulate of the CentralAsia, Mongolia and south Siberia. The approbation of instrumental methods of monitoring (camera traps) of resource species of large mammals were done. It is got evidences of dwelling local leopard population in Daghestan.Main conclusions. Formulated and proved the main threats to large mammals species existence in different ecosystems and natural zones of the Central Asia and the Caucasus, 2 – proposed strategic priorities and measures for large mammals species sustainable development, 3 – tested method of instrumental monitoring of resource species of large mammals in mountain ecosystems of the eastern Caucasus and south Siberia, 4 – it is got evidences of dwelling local leopard population in Daghestan. Резюме. Для всех видов крупных млекопитающих Дагестана и ресурсных копытных Средней и части Центральной Азии даны современные оценки их биоресурсного потенциала, выявлены тенденции изменения их численности в современный период, сформулированы и обоснованы основные угрозы их сохранению в экосистемах различных природных зон Центральной Азии и Кавказа.Предложены стратегические приоритеты по управлению их популяциями, направленные на устойчивое поддержание популяций крупных млекопитающих в горных экосистемах Кавказа, Средней и Центральной Азии.Апробированы различные методы инструментального мониторинга ресурсных видов крупных млекопитающих.Получены прямые доказательства, подтверждающие существование устойчивой группировки переднеазиатского леопарда в Дагестане.
