From January, 2006 to March, 2008,we carried on the investigation on three main core regions of Saihanwula Nature Reserve. Investigates this region five kind of main carnivora animal's food constitution and the habitat distributed characteristic.According to the selection line transect, under the weather clear condition, carries on the investigation by 1-1.5 km/h speeds on the line transect. Investigates in the process, front the record and the both sides observe beasts' type, quantity, is away from where can distinguish animal's type as the standard. Records active trace information and so on animal trail which, scats in the line transect about 5 meters observe, and preys on or gnaws the food trace, the hair in these position observation animal, to rub the mark and so on, the confirmation animal's type, quantity, the age.According to trail and scat's wet degree to judgment scat time, all date take the analysis ecology distributed basis, then analyzes five kind of animal habitats using the ArcGis geographic information system. Obtains food composition and the proportion by the analysis of food debris frequency and the surplus dry weight compiles. Compose compared with five kind of animal's foods and overlap. Below the research obtains the main result: five kind of animal's foods and animal's distributions.Through feeding habits analysis and habitat choice difference research, analysis main carnivora animal's food constitution and habitat distribution in Saihanwula Nature Reserve, thus uses in the carnivora animal's protection and the management, reduces the predatism animal's harm.
