Axis Deer

A total of 17 axis deer (Axis axis) (12 females, 5 males) were radio-instrumented in Bardia National Park in lowland Nepal, and 1921 locations of females and 605 locations of males were obtained during the 2-year study period. Both the annual home ranges (135 ± 33 and 204 ± 38 (SD) ha for females and males, respectively) and the seasonal home ranges were quite small compared with those reported in another study in Nepal. We present evidence that this difference is due to a more fine-grained habitat mosaic in Bardia. Males used larger areas than females in the monsoon and the hot part of the dry season. The deer were sedentary, with a mean seasonal home range overlap between 49 and 86%, and seasonal occupancy centres were all located less than 1300 m apart. Mean seasonal home range size (68 and 110 ha for females and males, respectively) was smallest in the cool part of the dry season. The rutting period did not seem to have any major effect on the ranging behaviour, as neither males nor females increased home range size from the pre-rut to the rutting period. The deer used riverine forest preferentially during the cool-dry and hot-dry seasons, whereas sal forest was the preferred habitat during the monsoon and the cool-dry season. Grasslands were preferentially utilized by females at night during the hot-dry season, presumably because of improved forage quality following cutting and burning. Males were more associated with riverine and sal forest than were females, while females used grassland areas more than males did.

Twelve species of mammals were recorded at mineral licks during the dry season in lowland Nepal. When analyzed for extractable phosphorus, potassium, magnesium, calcium, sodium, and sulphur concentrations and pH, only sodium concentration and pH were significantly higher than in control soil samples taken in both sal forest (Shorea robusta), in which all the licks were found, and adjacent riverine forest and grassland habitats. The axis deer (Axis axis) and common langur (Presbytis entellus) were the most common species on the licks. Axis deer used the licks intensively in January, just after grass sprouting, while most common langurs were recorded in March, after flushing of browse species. Sodium appeared to be the main element sought at the licks, based on both concentration differences between licks and controls and the significant relationship between axis deer use and the sodium content of the lick.
