Contributions of distemper control and habitat expansion to the Amur leopard viability

Abstract: The Amur leopard (Panthera pardus orientalis) is a critically endangered top predator that struggles on the brink of extinction due to threats such as canine distemper virus (CDV), habitat loss, and inbreeding depression. Here we develop a viability analysis metamodel that combines a traditional individual-based demographic model with an epidemiological model to assess the benefits of alternative population management actions in response to multiple distinct threats. Our results showed an extinction risk of 10… Show more

“…Spread is potentially through predation. For example, the leopard can prey on various virus hosts (free-ranging domestic dogs and small sized carnivores such as the Eurasian badger and red fox), which may act as infection pools [ 9 , 25 , 26 ].…”

“…CDV is regarded as the pathogen of greatest threat to large felids worldwide, with disease and mortalities reported in many species of genera Panthera and Lynx [ 25 , 26 ]. Over 85% of the lion ( Panthera leo ) population in the Serengeti National Park in Tanzania was infected in the early 1990s, which led to loss of 30% of the population [ 9 , 11 , 36 ].…”
