Body composition and population regulation of Svalbard reindeer

Authors: Reimers, Eigil;

Body composition and population regulation of Svalbard reindeer

Abstract

<p>After severe winters, body weight, fat, and lean tissue of the high Arctic Svalbard reindeer may be reduced by 50, 90-97 and 30-40% respectively. Absence of harassment from predators, insects and man allows surviving animals to rapidly restore body reserves during the summer. That accumulation of large pre-winter body reserves is essential, as the reindeer's survival and population control is dependant upon use of winter forage which is resistant to grazing but poor in quality.</p><p>Kroppssammensetning og bestandsregulering hos svalbardrein.</p><p>Abstract in Norwegian / Sammendrag: Etter harde vintre kan kroppsvekt, fett og magert vev bli redusert med henholdsvis 50, 90 - 97% henholdsvis. Frav&aelig;r av forstyrrelser av rovdyr, insekter og mennesker tillater overlevende dyr &aring; fornye sine kroppsreserver raskt gjennom sommeren. Denne akkumulering av store kroppsreserver f&oslash;r vinteren er livsviktig, da reinens overlevelse og bestandskontroll er avhengig av et vinterfor som er motstandsdyktig mot beiting, men er av d&aring;rlig kvalitet.</p><p>Huippuvuorten porojen ruumiinkokoonpano ja el&auml;inkannan s&auml;&auml;t&ouml;.</p><p>Abstract in Finnish /Yhteenveto: Ankarien talvien j&auml;lkeen voi ruumiinpaino, rasva ja laiha kudos v&auml;het&auml; 50, 90-97 ja 30-40 % jokainen erikseen. Petoel&auml;inten, hy&ouml;nteisten ja ihmisten h&auml;iri&ouml;iden poisj&auml;&auml;dess&auml; on eloonj&auml;&auml;neill&auml; el&auml;imill&auml; mahdollisuus uusia nopeasti ruumiin vara-aineet kes&auml;n kuluessa. Tam&auml; suurien ruumiin vara-aineiden kasaantuma ennen talvea on elint&auml;rke&auml;, koska porojen eloonj&auml;&auml;minen ja el&auml;inkannan valvonta on riippuvainen talvilaitumesta, joka siet&auml;&auml; laiduntamisen, vaikka se on huonoa laatua.</p>
