Research progress on ecology of Marmota himalayana
Marmota himalayana is an endemic species of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and an important part of its ecosystem,which plays a significant role in maintaining the ecological balance of the natural foci of plague.The distribution of marmots is influenced by environmental factors such as climate,soil,and vegetation,thereby determining the distribution and changes of natural plague foci and the risk of associated plague epizootics.In other words,the distribution of geographical landscape elements and the main host animals of plague play a decisive role in the distribution area of natural plague foci.Ecological research on M.himalayana has been widely reported.This paper reviews the research status in China and globally from the aspects of ecological,burrow,and habitat characteristics of M.himalayana,with the aim to improve the understanding of M.himalayana ecology and promote the application of ecology in plague prevention and control.
