Abstract
Information was collected on roe deer (Capreolus pygargus) distribution on the Eastern Steppe ofMongolia from 2000 to 2003. During this period, 65 roe deer were observed. Roe Deer were distributedthroughout the Eastern Steppe region, but all sightings occurred in or adjacent to small woodland patchesor riparian woodland. These woodland patches and riparian woodlands are likely to be critical roe deerhabitat on the otherwise open grasslands of eastern Mongolia. From a management perspective, roe deercan function as an ecological focal species for preservation of these habitats, and conservation of roedeer and their woodlands can conserve a suite of other species also dependent upon this habitat and thushelp conserve the biodiversity of Mongolia’s Eastern Steppe.
