Title: Small mammals of the Rembertów Military Training Area based on avian predators pellets analysis

Abstract:

The aim of the research was to assess small mammal diversity in the Rembertów Military Training Area, with particular attention to species rarely detected in central Poland. The study site covers around 7,500 ha. The landscape was highly diverse but dominated by forests. Altogether, in pellets of tawny owl, long-eared owl and common buzzard, we found remnants of 559 mammals from 16 species. Voles Microtus spp. were the most numerous (above 53% of prey). Among the Apodemus genus, yellow-necked mouse dominated (13.4%). Soricomorphs were represented by four species: common shrew, pygmy shrew, water shrew, and mole, all of which constituted 9.8% of prey. Among rare species we detected: water vole (1 individual), pine vole (2 individuals) and water shrew (2 individuals).
