Son yıllarda meşe ormanlarının öneminin artması bu habitatların daha fazla araştırılma gereksinimini ortaya çıkarmıştır. Bu çalışma Bolu-Yedigöller Yaban Hayatı Geliştirme Sahası’ndaki bir saf meşe meşceresindeki memeli türlerin belirlenmesi amacıyla yapılmıştır. Yaklaşık bir yıl boyunca (Eylül 2013-Temmuz 2014) sabit noktalardan fotokapanlarla gözlemler yapılmıştır. Tespit edilen 10 memeli türe ait 1415 görüntüde 2231 yaban hayvanı bireyi sayılmıştır. Yaban domuzu, karaca ve kızıl tilki alandaki en baskın türlerdir. Meşcerede yaban hayvanları mevsimsel farklılık göstermemektedir. Daha çok beslenme davranışı görülmüştür. Türler genel olarak gececildir. Yaban hayatı bakımından zengin olan meşe meşcerelerinde sürdürülebilir yönetimin devam ettirilmesi önerilmektedir.

Mammals determined by wildlife camera trap in pure oak stand in Bolu-Yedigöller Wildlife Reserve

Öz

In recent years, increasing importance of the oak forests has
revealed the requirement for further investigation of these habitats. The
current study was conducted to determine the species of mammals in a pure oak
stand in Bolu-Yedigöller Wildlife Reserve. The observations were made by
wildlife camera traps from fixed-points for about a year, from September 2013
to July 2014. A total of 10 species of mammals was identified, and 2231
individuals were counted from 1415 wild animal images. Wild boar, roe deer and
red fox are the most dominant species in the area. Wild animals do not show
seasonal variations in the stands. Feeding behavior was observed more than the
other activities. The species is nocturnal in general. We suggest continuing
the sustainable management in oak stands that are rich in terms of wildlife
