摘要

Fresh camera-trap photographs and pug-marks from Jigme Dorji National Park in northern Bhutan show that the tiger Panthera tigris occurs here at altitudes higher than it has ever been recorded, so high that its range overlaps that of the snow leopard Uncia uncia. The tigers have been recorded up to 4,300 m. Snow leopards from the same region of Bhutan are known to occur over altitudes of 2,000-5,500 m. Bhutan is the only country where the presence of tigers has been recorded at such high altitudes, and is also the only country where the habitats of snow leopard and tiger appear to overlap. The study, led by Tiger Sangay of the Department of Forest's Nature Conservation Division, began in April 2008 and is using 38 infrared-trigger cameras to estimate tiger population numbers and document their distribution. At the moment the research is focused in Jigme Dorji National Park but will be expanded to all of Bhutan's protected areas. The study also plans to use the same photographic techniques to estimate the number of snow leopards in Bhutan. The reasons for tigers being found at
