    摘要:

    作为迁地保护的核心策略,再引入已经成为全球濒危物种拯救的关键手段,其成效高度依赖目标种群的持续繁殖能力。本研究通过对陕西宁陕朱鹮(Nipponia nippon)再引入种群长达17年(2008至2024年)的连续监测,系统揭示了该种群的繁殖现状及限制因素。主要发现如下:共记录222个巢,累计产卵723枚,平均窝卵数(3.3 ± 0.9)枚(1 ~ 5枚)。具体而言,1 ~ 5枚卵的巢占比分别为4.1%、14.4%、35.6%、43.7%和2.3%,其中3和4枚卵的繁殖巢占总数的79.3%。共成功孵出雏鸟524只,总体孵化率为72.5%,年度间无显著差异(F16, 222 = 0.000 48,P > 0.05)。出飞幼鸟400只,总体繁殖成功率为55.3%。值得注意的是,幼鸟出飞数量存在显著的年际间差异(F16, 222 = 5.820 00,P < 0.01)。雏鸟的致死原因主要包括:食物缺乏(45.2%)、天敌捕食(21.0%)、亲鸟弃巢(5.6%)、胚胎死亡(4.8%)及其他未确定因素(23.4%)。基于上述发现,建议采取如下保护措施:(1)建立巢区智能监测系统,重点防控蛇类等天敌对雏鸟的威胁;(2)地方经济发展规划应充分考虑朱鹮的生态需求;(3)实施分级响应机制,在育雏期和冬季食物匮乏期进行人工投食,极端天气时启动雏鸟应急救护。本研究成果为朱鹮乃至其他濒危水鸟再引入项目的科学管理提供了量化依据。

    Abstract:

    [Objectives] As a critical strategy of ex-situ conservation, species reintroduction has become a critical approach for rescuing globally endangered species, with its success highly dependent on the sustained reproductive capacity of the target population. This study reported key breeding parameters (including clutch size, hatching rate, and fledging rate) and their variations and identified new threats facing the reintroduced Crested Ibis (Nipponia nippon) population in Ningshan, Shaanxi, aiming to provide a quantitative basis for developing targeted conservation measures. [Methods] We conducted 17 consecutive years (2008–2024) of continuous field monitoring on the reintroduced Crested Ibis population in Ningshan, Shaanxi. Nests were systematically located by observing evening flight directions during the breeding season (February-June) and monitored via binoculars (10 × 42) and spotting scopes (20 ~ 60 ×). We recorded key breeding parameters, including laying date, clutch size, hatching success, and fledging success, and identified the causes of egg losses and chick mortality based on direct observation and physical evidence. For statistical analysis, Welch’s ANOVA was employed to test for annual variations in laying date, while one-way ANOVA was performed to assess annual variations in per-nest hatching and fledging counts. A chi-square test was conducted to analyze the distribution of nests by clutch size. Breeding success metrics (e.g., hatching rate, fledging rate, and reproductive success) were calculated as percentages. All tests were two-tailed, with significance set at P < 0.05. [Results] A total of 222 nests were recorded, producing 723 eggs with a mean clutch size of 3.3 ± 0.9 eggs (range:1 ~ 5 eggs). Specifically, nests with 1 ~ 5 eggs accounted for 4.1%, 14.4%, 35.6%, 43.7%, and 2.3% of the total, respectively, with nests containing 3 or 4 eggs comprising 79.3% of all nests (Table 1). A total of 524 chicks successfully hatched, yielding an overall hatching rate of 72.5%, with no significant annual variation (F16, 222 = 0.000 48, P > 0.05). Four hundred nestlings were observed to fledge, resulting in an overall breeding success of 55.3% (Table 2). Notably, fledgling numbers exhibited significant annual differences (F16, 222 = 5.820 00, P < 0.01). Major causes of chick mortality included food shortage (45.2%), predation (21.0%), nest abandonment (5.6%), embryo mortality (4.8%) and unknown causes (23.4%) (Fig. 2). [Conclusion] According to these findings, this paper proposes the following conservation measures:(1) establishing an intelligent nest monitoring system to mitigate threats from predators such as the King Rat Snake (Elaphe carinata); (2) developing local economic development plans that fully consider the ecological requirements of the Crested Ibis; (3) implementing a tiered response mechanism of conducting artificial feeding during the brood-rearing stage and winter with food scarcity and activating emergency rescue measures for chicks during extreme climatic events. This study provides a quantitative basis for the scientific management of reintroduction programs for the Crested Ibis and other endangered waterbirds.
