摘要

Monitoring population trends of bats in caves is difficult but is very important for their conservation. Their vulnerability to decline cannot be taken lightly and must be monitored for future management purposes especially in places open to the public. No studies have been done on bats roosting in caves at Kota Gelanggi and there are very few published studies of cave-dwelling bats in Malaysia. To fill this gap, a study on monitoring the population trends of Rhinolophus affinis was carried out in two caves namely, Gua Kepala Gajah and Gua Tongkat. This study was conducted from October 2013 until December 2014. The population size was estimated by direct visual counts and photographic methods during the day. The bats were caught by using mists net and harp traps. The reproductive condition of both female and male individuals was examined. The mean estimated population size for R. affinis in Gua Kepala Gajah was 221 individuals and 464 in Gua Tongkat. The population size of R. affinis showed an obvious decline during the breeding season and increased gradually after that for both caves. Pregnant R. affinis were found in April 2014 and lactating in June 2014 in both caves. It is important to know the breeding and non-breeding season of bats in both caves and their roosting behaviour in order to protect the bats from human disturbance as these caves are open to the public. The findings will enable the TEKAM management to come out with a proper conservation and management plan for protecting the bat fauna in these caves.

Affinis的平均估计人口大小是Gua Tongkat中的221名个人和464名。 R. Affinis的人口大小表现出繁殖季节的明显下降,并且在洞穴中逐渐增加。怀孕的R.Favinis于2014年4月在2014年4月发现,2014年6月在两洞中哺乳。重要的是要了解洞穴中蝙蝠的繁殖和非繁殖季节以及它们的栖息行为,以保护蝙蝠从人体障碍免受这些洞穴对公众开放。调查结果将使Tekam Management能够享受适当的保护和管理计划,以保护这些洞穴中的蝙蝠动物群。
