Partial Altitudinal Migration of a Himalayan Forest Pheasant

BACKGROUND Altitudinal migration systems are poorly understood. Recent advances in animal telemetry which enables tracking of migrants across their annual cycles will help illustrate unknown migration patterns and test existing hypotheses. Using telemetry, we show the existence of a complex partial altitudinal migration system in the Himalayas and discuss our findings to help better understand ...

Evaluation of pheasant semen production during the reproductive season.

The aim of this research was to evaluate the quality and quantity of semen production of pheasants during the reproductive season. Fifty-five male pheasants (Phasianus colchicus mongolicus) were used from 37-59 weeks of age. Semen samples were collected manually on a biweekly basis. At 45 weeks of age, pheasants which had never produced (n = 22) or only produced occasionally (n = 7) were discar...

GENETIC VARIABILITY OF PHEASANT (Phasianus spp.) IN BREEDING STATION RISTOVACA

One of the possible reasons for pheasant population number decline in past several years might be loss of adaptability in populations originated from breeding stations caused by inbreeding depression. Due to fact that adaptability is a consequence of genetic structure of the populations, the aim of this paper was the analysis of genetic variability in pheasant population from breeding station R...
