摘要

Marine stock enhancement is often characterized by poor survival of hatchery-reared individuals due to deficiencies in their fitness, such as a diminished capacity to avoid predators. Field experiments were used to examine predation on Penaeus plebejus, a current candidate for stock enhancement in Australia. We compared overall survival of, and rates of predation on, wild P. plebejus juveniles, naieve hatchery-reared juveniles (which represented the state of individuals intended for stock enhancement) and experienced hatchery-reared juveniles (which had been exposed to natural predatory stimuli). Predation was examined in the presence of an ambush predator (Centropogon australis White, 1790) and an active-pursuit predator (Metapenaeus macleayi Haswell) within both complex (artificial macrophyte) and simple (bare sand and mud) habitats. Overall survival was lower and rates of predation were higher in simple habitats compared to complex habitats in the presence of C australis. However, the three categories of juveniles survived at similar proportions and suffered similar rates of predation within each individual habitat No differences in survival and rates of predation were detected among habitats or the categories of juveniles when M. madeayi was used as a predator. These results indicate that wild and hatchery-reared P. plebejus juveniles are equally capable of avoiding predators. Furthermore, exposure of hatchery-reared juveniles to wild conditions does not increase their ability to avoid predators, suggesting an innate rather than learned anti-predator response. The lower predation by C australis in complex habitats was attributed to a reduction in this ambush predator's foraging efficiency due to the presence of structure. Ecological experiments comparing wild and hatchery-reared individuals should precede all stock enhancement programs because they may identify deficits in hatchery-reared animals that could be mitigated to optimize survival. Such studies can also identify weaknesses in wild animals, relative to hatchery-reared individuals, that may lead to the loss of resident populations.

Madeayi被用作捕食者时,在栖息地或幼体类别中未发现存活率和捕食率的差异。这些结果表明,野生的和孵化场饲养的P. plebejus幼体同样有能力避开捕食者。此外,将孵化场饲养的幼鱼暴露于野生条件下并不会增加其避免捕食者的能力,这表明是天生的,而不是习得的反捕食者反应。在复杂的栖息地中,澳洲南方捕食者的捕食率较低是由于这种埋伏捕食者由于结构的存在而降低了它们的觅食效率。比较野生和孵化场饲养的个体的生态实验应在所有种群增加计划之前进行,因为它们可以发现孵化场饲养的动物的缺陷,可以减少这些缺陷以优化生存。此类研究还可以确定野生动物相对于孵化场饲养的个体的弱点,这可能导致常住人口的流失。
