Home range size and spatio-temporal dynamics of male sika deer (Cervus nippon; Cervidae, Artiodactyla) in an introduced population

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The sika deer (Cervus nippon) is native to Japan and East Asia and has been introduced almost worldwide. Despite the wide distribution of the species, only few studies on its home range in non-native areas have been conducted. We focused on home range size and its seasonal and spatial dynamics in an introduced sika deer population in the Doupovské hory Mts., north-western Czech Republic. The mean home range size, obtained from ten subadult and adult males, was 3620 ha using the minimum convex polygon method, 1163 ha using the Brownian bridges method, and 819 ha using kernel estimation. The mean intra-individual home range overlap from month to month was about 72 %, but decreased to 28 % when calculated for three-month periods. The unusually large homerange sizes observed can be explained by a relatively low population density of the sika deer in the study area and possibly by the non-territorial mating strategy of males. The high values of seasonal home range overlap together with the
