Abstract

In order to effective management of animal species, it is necessary to identify habitats with high desirability for the target species, so that by preserving those habitats and planning for their proper management, the target population will be protected. This study was conducted to determine the relationship between rangeland species and the suitability of Iranian deer habitat in different seasons based on dung groups in Kalmand plain of Yazd province. For this purpose, sampling was performed using random permanent plots with 200 meters long and two meters wide and with two replications during five field investigation in summer and autumn. Based on the number of plots with dung control or randomized plots were established in the whole habitat and in different directions and investigated every 45 days. Finally, all the required maps and information integration were prepared and performed in Arc GIS 9. 3 software. The results showed that there was no significant difference between the two seasons in terms of the dung group’ s density in plant communities. In terms of cover percentage, Artemisia and Astragalus sp. had a significant increase in presence points compared to random points. Onopordon sp. canopy cover in absent points and Acanthophyllum sp. in random points were higher as compared with presence points (p<0. 01). According to the map, for deer in terms of suitability, 23% and 47% of the area was located in the first-class and second-class, respectively. According to the results of this study, among the habitat variables, species richness, cover percentage of Artemisia, and distance from the road were the most influential variables in the choice of deer habitat.
