Abstract

From June 2012 to April 2014,the monitoring of wild animals in the nature reserve was conducted using infrared trigger automatic camera.Altogether,2517 pictures were taken at 20 locations.There are 732 pictures which can be identified,among them 47.4% are the pictures of mammals,50.8% are birds and 1.8% are the pictures of staff members.Altogether 25 species were identified,among them 8 species are mammals and 17 are birds.For mammals,Ibex,Blue Sheep and Desert Hare topped the ratings.For birds,Red-billed Chough,Hill Pigeon and Chukar partridge topped the ratings.We offer a good way to monitor the wild life in desert habitats.Some frequent questions of using infrared camera technology in natural reserve are discussed.
