Abstract:

The analysis of gut microbiota using fecal samples provides a non-invasive approach to understand the complex interactions between host species and their intestinal bacterial community. However, information on gut microbiota for wild endangered carnivores is scarce. The goal of this study was to describe the gut microbiota of two leopard subspecies, the Amur leopard (Panthera pardus orientalis) and North Chinese leopard (Panthera pardus japonensis). Fecal samples from the Amur leopard (n = 8) and North Chinese leopard (n = 13) were collected in Northeast Tiger and Leopard National Park and Shanxi Tieqiaoshan Provincial Nature Reserve in China, respectively. The gut microbiota of leopards was analyzed via high-throughput sequencing of the V3–V4 region of bacterial 16S rRNA gene using the Life Ion S5™ XL platform. A total of 1,413,825 clean reads representing 4,203 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) were detected. For Amur leopard samples, Firmicutes (78.4%) was the dominant phylum, followed by Proteobacteria (9.6%) and Actinobacteria (7.6%). And for the North Chinese leopard, Firmicutes (68.6%), Actinobacteria (11.6%) and Fusobacteria (6.4%) were the most predominant phyla. Clostridiales was the most diverse bacterial order with 37.9% for Amur leopard and 45.7% for North Chinese leopard. Based on the beta-diversity analysis, no significant difference was found in the bacterial community composition between the Amur leopard and North Chinese leopard samples. The current study provides the initial data about the composition and structure of the gut microbiota for wild Amur leopards and North Chinese leopards, and has laid the foundation for further investigations of the health, dietary preferences and physiological regulation of leopards.

Abstract:

The leopard, Panthera pardus, is a threatened species in its range throughout the world. Although, historically, the Korean Peninsula had a high population density of leopards, they were extirpated from South Korea by 1970, leaving almost no genetic specimens. Traditionally, Korean leopards are classified as Panthera pardus orientalis; however, their classification is based only on locality and morphology. Therefore, there is a need for genetic studies to identify the phylogenetic status of Korean leopards at the subspecies level. Presently, no extant wild specimen is available from South Korea; therefore, we extracted genetic material from the old skin of a leopard captured in Jirisan, South Korea in the 1930s and conducted the first phylogenetic study of the South Korean leopard. A total of 726 bp of mitochondrial DNA, including segments of the NADH5 and control region, were amplified by PCR. A phylogenetic analysis of the fragment, along with sequences of nine leopard subspecies from GenBank revealed that the extinct South Korean leopard belonged to the Asian leopard group and in the same clade as the Amur leopard (Panthera pardus orientalis). Thus, the leopard that inhabited South Korea in the past was of the same subspecies as the Amur leopard population currently inhabiting the transboundary region of Russia, China, and North Korea. These results emphasize the importance of conserving the endangered wild Amur leopard population (estimated to be about 60–80 individuals) in Russia and China, for future restoration of leopards in the Korean Peninsula.

Abstract:

The article presents the study results of the Moscow Zoo' visitor effect on the behavior of the snow leopard Uncia uncia and the Amur leopard Panthera pardus orientalis. It was shown that most of the time the animals were inactive or were in a shelter (on the average 86,3%). Stereotypy was typical only for the Amur leopard (19,1%). Animals were more likely to be active in the presence of 0 to 20 people. Most often, animals were in other parts of the aviary; however, stereotypy was manifested mainly in the front zone of the aviary. The Amur leopard shows aggression towards visitors who tried to get its attention and it's reaction to mens was more intense. Snow leopard did not react to visitors.

Abstract:

Seroprevalence to nine different virus pathogens was estimated for Russian big cats (Amur tiger (Panthera tigris altaica Temminck, 1844) and far-eastern leopard (Panthera pardus orientalis (Schiegel, 1857))) in Southern Primorie, Russia (n = 25), in 2008–2016. Serum samples from smaller cats (Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx (Linnaeus, 1758)) and far-eastern wildcat (leopard cat) (Prionailurus bengalensis euptilurus (Elliot, 1871))) were also tested for these pathogens (n = 19) during the same period. Felids of Russian Southern Primorie showed seroprevalence to eight out of nine tested pathogens, including highly dangerous feline immunodeficiency virus, feline leukemia virus, and canine distemper virus. Antibodies to feline panleukopenia virus were found to be much more widespread in cats (45%) than antibodies to any other virus. They were detected in samples taken from tigers, leopards, and far-eastern wildcats but not lynxes. Antibodies to pseudorabies virus were detected only in Amur tiger (29%), whose main prey is the most common carrier of the virus (wild boar), unlike for the other studied cats’ species.

Abstract:

We examined genetic diversity of the wild Tsushima leopard cat—a regional population of the Amur leopard cat—using microsatellite markers. In addition, we compared genetic diversity of the Tsushima leopard cat with that of the Korean population of Amur leopard cat. Although bias should be considered when applying cross-species amplification, the Tsushima leopard cat showed a lower index of molecular genetic diversity than did the Korean population. These results were consistent with those obtained using other genetic markers, such as mitochondrial DNA and Y chromosome sequences. This low genetic diversity of the wild Tsushima leopard cat may be derived from the founding population. Furthermore, our results suggest that the captive populations held in Japanese zoos may show extremely low genetic diversity, leading to difficulties in genetic management of the Tsushima leopard cat. Moreover, the two regional populations were clearly separated using these marker sets. In the present study, we demonstrated that the genetic diversity of the Tsushima leopard cat is extremely low compared with that of the continental regional population. Importantly, the Japanese captive population for ex situ conservation was derived from a founding population with extremely low genetic diversity; hence, we assume that both the captive and wild populations showed extremely low genetic diversities. Our findings emphasize the need to develop carefully considered management strategies for genetic conservation.

Abstract:

Successful experiments on olfactory enrichment of clove oil in Russian zoos have been carried out. Olfactory enrichment with clove oil reduced or eliminated stereotypical behavior (pacing) in most Amur tigers, African lions, and some Canadian and Red wolves. The behavior of the Far Eastern leopard and the Snow leopard behavior has not changed significantly under the influence of clove essential oil. Olfactory enrichment of clove essential oil is more successful for young animals.

Abstract:

The Tsushima leopard cat (Prionailurus bengalensis euptilurus) lives on Tsushima Island in Japan and is a regional population of the Amur leopard cat; it is threatened with extinction. Its genetic management is important because of the small population. We used genotyping by random amplicon sequencing-direct (GRAS-Di) to develop a draft genome and explore single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers. The SNPs were analyzed using three genotyping methods (mapping de novo, to the Tsushima leopard cat draft genome, and to the domestic cat genome). We examined the genetic diversity and genetic structure of the Tsushima leopard cat. The genome size was approximately 2.435 Gb. The number of SNPs identified was 133–158. The power of these markers was sufficient for individual and parentage identifications. These SNPs can provide useful information about the life of the Tsushima leopard cat and the pairings and for the introduction of founders to conserve genetic diversity with ex situ conservation. We identified that there are no subpopulations of the Tsushima leopard cat. The identifying units will allow for a concentration of efforts for conservation. SNPs can be applied to the analysis of the leopard cat in other regions, making them useful for comparisons among populations and conservation in other small populations.

Abstract:

Nos últimos anos a estrutura e o funcionamento dos ecossistemas têm-se alterado a uma velocidade alarmante, em grande parte devido à extinção de inúmeras espécies. Portanto, cabe-nos a todos, enquanto sociedade, tomar medidas que visem o controlo desta situação, uma vez que é o Homem o maior responsável por esta crise. No que respeita à conservação de espécies animais, os zoos e os médicos veterinários são hoje ferramentas indispensáveis e têm vindo a adotar novas funções no seguimento da problemática da extinção. A conservação é um tema complexo e extenso e como tal, seria extremamente díficil de explorar integralmente neste trabalho, pelo que o tema abordado incidirá principalmente na conservação ex situ e em particular na reprodução em cativeiro de animais selvagens. Serão abordadas várias perspectivas, desde a implementação dos programas de reprodução e gestão das populações mantidas em cativeiro, quer em termos demográficos quer em termos genéticos, até ao objetivo final desta medida de conservação, que será a reintrodução de espécies no ambiente selvagem. Neste trabalho são ainda abordados, de forma específica, aspetos relacionados com a reprodução de duas espécies de felinos selvagens: Leopardo de Amur (Panthera pardus orientalis) e Leão Asiático (Panthera leo persica), classificadas como Criticamente Ameaçada (CR) e Em Perigo (EN), respetivamente, pela Lista de Espécies Ameaçadas da União Internacional para a conservação da Natureza (IUCN Red List).
In recent years, the structure and functioning of ecosystems have been changing at an alarming rate, largely due to the extinction of countless species. Therefore, it is up to all of us, as a society, to take measures to control this situation, particularly as man being the main responsible for this crisis. Regarding the conservation of animal species, zoos and veterinarians are now indispensable tools, which have adoped new functions following the extinction problem. Since conservation is a complex and extensive theme, it would be extremely difficult to fully explore it in this work. Therefore, the main focus will be ex situ conservation, in particular the captive breeding of wild animals. Several perspectives will be address, from the implementation of breeding programs, management of populations kept in captivity, both demographically, and genetically, to the ultimate goal of this conservation measure, which is the reintroduction of species in the wild. In this study, specific aspects related to the reproduction of two species of wild felids will be addressed: the Amur Leopard (Panthera pardus orientalis) and the Asiatic Lion (Panthera leo persica), classified as Critically Endangered (CR) and Endangered (EN) respectively, by the List of Threatened Species of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN Red List).
