Xiao Zhou, Dongdong Chen, Stephen W. Kress, Shuihua Chen. A review of the use of active seabird restoration techniques[J]. Biodiv Sci, 2017, 25(4): 364-371.
雏鸟转移技术 Chick translocation | 社群吸引技术 Social attraction | |
---|---|---|
原理 Overview | 转移雏鸟至目标岛屿, 人工饲育直到飞行离开。利用海鸟对生长地的依恋倾向, 吸引这些雏鸟长大后回归目标岛屿繁殖 Transfer seabird nestlings to the target island, and rear them until they fledge. The released birds may return to the restoration site. This method is best for species that demonstrate strong natal site philopatry. | 在目标岛屿上布置模型诱饵和声音回放设备, 利用集群海鸟的社群吸引行为吸引附近海鸟前来栖息繁殖 Decoys and audio playback systems are deployed at the restoration site to attract adult colonial seabirds, which select their breeding site by using social information. |
技术要点 Key techniques | 雏鸟人工抚育及野外放飞 Chick rearing and release | 假鸟的布设及声音回放设备的安放 Decoys and audio playback system deployment |
适用范围 Preferred species | 具有恋家倾向的、易于人工饲养、穴居型海鸟, 如信天翁和海燕等 Species with strong natal site philopatry such as albatrosses and storm-petrels | 集群性较强, 雏鸟需双亲后期抚育的海鸟, 如燕鸥和海鸥等 Colonial breeding species with weak natal site philopatry such as terns and gulls |
局限性 Limitations | 需投入较大人力物力用于雏鸟饲育; 不恰当的饲育和运输可能对雏鸟造成伤害; 取得成功周期相对较长 Labor intensive and expensive because of the need for chick tending stewards; great care during transport and chick rearing to reduce mortality to chicks; may take many years to achieve restoration because most species do not breed until they are five or more years old. | 见效快, 繁殖群的形成有滚雪球效应, 但除了燕鸥和海鸥等集群性较强的海鸟, 其他海鸟招引成功率相对较低 Colonization around decoys and audio speakers may happen quickly as the first breeders help to advertise the location of the colony, but a relatively lower success rate for other species except for terns and gulls. |
见效期 Establishment period | 5-10年 5-10 years | 1-5年 1-5 years |
