Abstract

Human activities associated with roads are frequently perceived to be negative for ungulates in arid environments because they may affect the use of feeding areas. Here, we focused on the behavior of vicuña (Vicugna vicugna), which feeds in four different, high-altitude wetlands affected by human activities (tourism, ranching, poaching and undisturbed). The results showed that vicuñas were more abundant and had higher feeding rates and lower flight distances in wetlands with tourism than in the other wetlands, suggesting that they have become desensitized to the presence of people at these sites. Management Implication: Noninvasive tourism could help safeguard wild ungulates

vicuñas对智利北部高地沙漠中与道路相关的优先喂食地点人类活动的行为反应
与道路有关的人类活动通常被认为对干旱环境中的有蹄类动物不利,因为它们可能影响到喂养区域的使用。在这里,我们重点研究了vicuña (Vicugna Vicugna)的行为,它在受人类活动(旅游、牧场、偷猎和未受干扰)影响的四种不同的高海拔湿地觅食。结果表明,与其他湿地相比,旅游湿地中vicuñas的数量更丰富,摄食率更高,飞行距离更短,这表明它们对人类的存在已经变得不敏感。管理启示:非侵入性旅游有助于保护野生有蹄类动物
