摘要

From November 1991 to March 1994, the activity of 3 male and I female Formosan muntjac (Mulltiacus reevesi micrurus) was recorded from radio-tracking in the forest at Walami Area of eastern part of Taiwan. The result showed that the amount of time spent active was 49.4%. From 3 to 8 active peaks could be found on any given day. However, 5 was the most common one. Time interval between active peaks varied from 2 to 9 hours and the average interval was 4.08± 1.58 hr. Interval time between peaks during the day was significantly shorter than that of night time (3.63 ±1.31 vs. 4.46± 1.69, t-test, p＜0.05). The highest percent occurrence of active peak was at 17 and 6 hr. of an average day, while the lowest was found at 19 hr. The activity budget of this species demonstrated a daylight dominant crepuscular pattern. The peak activities coincided with sunrise and sunset. Yet no significant effects on activity pattern could be found from seasonal and climatic changes.
