Roadside housing disturbances with Trachypithecus francoisi at the Mayanghe Nature Reserve, Guizhou Province
To determine housing increases along a road and their effects on Trachypithecus francoisi more disturbed habitat (XGB1),XGB2,and less disturbed habitat (LYY1) (Francois'langur),interviews were conducted from July 2010 to August 2011.Movement of the Francois'langur XGB1,XGB2,and LYY1 was observed by tracking all day,and XGB1 strategies for adapting to the new environment were noted by full event recording.Results showed that 47 houses were built along the road with a 100％ increase every five years and that 90.16％ of the villagers favored house building.Due to interference from villagers,the probability of a Francois' langur crossing the road successfully was 74.77％.The average vertical distance (L1) between houses ranged from (20.00 ± 2.16) m (n =7) to (23.10 ± 2.69) m (n =10).Thus,to cross the road,animals would go between buildings that were at least twice L1.Based on the analysis some options were presented for survival of the Francois'langur and for villagers building in this area.
