Distribution pattern of the threatened Himalayan serow (Capricornis thar) in western midhills of Nepal: An insight for conservation along an altitudinal gradient
Original language description
Almost nothing is known about the distribution and status of the Himalayan serow, an IUCN category "near threatened" ungulate, formerly widely distributed from subtropical to subalpine regions, in the Nepalese Himalaya. Heavy hunting, together with habitat loss and fragmentation are believed to have caused local extinctions in many sites within its geographical range. Distribution pattern of this dense forest dwelling threatened ungulate thus indicates conservation status of the whole unique ecosystemsof this region. The objective of this study was therefore to assess distribution and status of serow in the Nepalese midhills. We conducted surveys, based on sightings and indirect presence signs, in western Nepal, between the subtropical Bardia NationalPark in the south and mountainous Shey Phoksundo National Park in the north, during 2008-2010. We recorded serow in the Bardia National Park. Further to the north, we recorded it only in highly rugged and inaccessible areas in the high a
