Evaluation of breeding of primates of Lemuridae Family in zoo Jihlava
BENEŠ, Jiří
Lemurs are diurnal prosimians that come from the fourth biggest island in the world Madagascar (587 041 km?). They are mainly frugivores and folivores. Because of the loss of their natural habitat and occasional hunting they are threatened with a continuous descending trend. This thesis was created in order to assess the history of diurnal lemurs breeding in the Jihlava ZOO since the beginning until now, to compare rearing in individual ZOOs in the Czech Republic, to compare the number of young lemurs in one litter in a Czech ZOO with the literature data and to compare the environment of the bred species with the conditions described in the literature.
Dominance hierarchy in the male group of ruffed lemurs (\kur{Varecia} spp.) in the Ostrava ZOO
STEHLÍKOVÁ, Jitka
This study investigates a dominance hierarchy in a male group of ruffed lemurs (Varecia spp.). I introduce a new method of data processing in unstable and inconsistent dominance hierarchy. Data were collected in the Ostrava ZOO during 30 days in the summer of 2009 and 28 days in the of winter 2010. The results demonstrate unusual structure in the sequences of agonistic interactions. The lemur group exhibited unstable and inconsistent dominance hierarchy with a low level of linearity. It appears that dominance hierarchy in ruffed lemurs is based on their social role in the family group and not on agonistic interactions.
