To identify the characteristics of the dropping habits and to provide improved methods for sign survey of Siberian flying squirrels Pteromys volans, an investigation was carried out in Jirisan National Park from April 2012 to May 2013. The latrines of study area were checked once a month and the characteristics of dropping behavior were camera trapped. The feces of Siberian flying squirrel were found on the point which tree forked, mostly from November to May. The squirrel actively presents in forked tree mainly on the September to April. The Siberian flying squirrel is found to be a typical nocturnal animal as it actively move between 6p.m. to 7a.m.. The study found that squirrel does feeding and dropping in the winter time on forked tree. On the point which tree forked could be a good place for the squirrel to hide from their predator when there is no leaf on the tree. Conducting the sign survey is advisable from November to May, as well as with the careful approach to the animals. As Siberian flying squirrel is an endangered species, adjusting the survey period is mandatory, especially when doing environmental impact assessment and a research on its dwelling areas.

Main attackers on pine seeds on the forest floor were investigated in Korea. Damage on pine cones begins in early stage of cone formation, especially by squirrel and Korean squirrel. The above animals left Kayak-like hulls of seed on rocks and fallen tree trunk. Field mice also left the same shape of Kayak-like hulls. But birds including doves and peasants left large shreds with longitudinal cracks or seed cup trace. Most of seeds on the leaf litters as well as under the fallen leaf were consumed by field mice and birds. Especially field mice found the seeds under fallen leaves and consumed all of them.

Most of seeds on the leaf litters as well as under the fallen leaf were consumed by fold mice and birds. Especially fold mice found the seeds under fallen leaves and consumed all of them.

청설모(Sciurus vulgaris corea)의 췌장에 분포하는 glucagon 및 somatostatin 세포의 분포와 그들 분비과립의 특징을 밝히기 위해 면역조직화학적 및 면역전자현미경적 방법으로 관찰하였다. Glucagon 면역반응세포는 주로 췌도의 주변부에 분포하였고, 때로는 외분비부에서 관찰되었다. 이 세포의 분비과립은 직경이 240~320nm였으며, 전자밀도가 높은 core를 전자밀도가 낮은 halo가 둘러싸고 특히 gold particle들은 전자밀도가 높은 core에 강한 반응을 보였다. Somatostatin면역반응세포는 췌도의 주변부를 따를 면역반응이 아주 약한 세포들로 산재하였으며 또한 외분비에서 단독 혹은 소집단으로 관찰되었다. 이 세포의 분비과립은 전자밀도가 낮고 직경이 250~275nm였으며, gold particle는 분비과립에 중등도로 고른 반응을 보였다.

야생동물에 의한 활엽수 종자의 2차 분산율과 관련 야생동물을 확인하고자, 온대중부의 천연활엽수 혼효림이 분포하는 평창군 중왕산 지역에서 9월 하순에 4수종의 종자를 배열한 seed-tray를 설치하여 10월 하순까지 야생동물에 의한 2차 분산율과 야생동물을 3년간 조사하였다. 신갈나무 종자가 평균 87.2%의 2차 분산율로 가장 높았으며, 다음으로 당단풍나무 종자 33.1%였으며, 고로쇠나무 종자 29.2%, 복장나무 종자는 13.6%로 2차 분산율이 가장 낮았다. 2차 분산도 신갈나무가 단풍나무류 세 수종보다 빠르게 진행되었다. 2차 분산에 관여하는 야생동물은 다람쥐(Siberian chipmunks)가 가장 빈번하게 방문하였고, 다음은 청설모(Korean squirrel), 멧돼지(Wild boar) 순이었으며, 드물게 방문한 종은 담비(Yellow-throated marten)였다. 신갈나무 종자는 대부분 멧돼지가 직접 소비하였거나, 다람쥐나 청설모 등이 물어가 소비하거나 분산저장한 것이라 추정된다. 대부분의 단풍나무류 종자는 직접 설치류들에 의해 소비되고 일부만 분산저장되는 것이라 추정된다. 야생동물의 포식과 분산저장으로 늦가을에 숲 바닥에 남아있는 건전종자는 거의 없었다. 연구 대상지에서 신갈나무, 고로쇠나무, 당단풍나무와 복장나무의 치수발생이 이루어지고 있음을 확인하였다. 이 연구의 결과로 숲에 서식하는 멧돼지는 종자 포식자이며, 설치류는 종자 포식자 또는 분산자임을 확인하였다. 앞으로 야생동물에 의한 종자의 2차 분산율, 소비와 분산저장량 및 관련 야생동물에 대한 더 많은 연구가 필요하다고 사료된다.

We studied the nectar secretion of the Japanese Camellia (Camellia japonica L.), an evergreen tree and observed its floral visitors during the day. The mean volume of nectar secreted, during daylight (08:31 to 16:30 h) was 30.26$\pm8,29ml$ (SD) (n = 27). During the late afternoon and overnight (16:31 to 08:30 following day), 100.54$\pm54.85$(n = 27) of nectar was secreted. Total volume measured when flowers were sampled once every two hours for an eight-hour period was approximately one-half the volume which was measured when the flowers were sampled only once after eight hours. The mean nectar volume secreted was 8.55$\pm8.3ml$(n = 30) between 08:31 to 10:30, 4.38$\pm$6.1 ml (n = 30) between 10:31 to 12:30, 4.6$\pm5.4ml$(n = 30) between 12;31 to 14:30, and 4.02$\pm3.5ml$(n = 30) between 14:31 to 16:30 hours. During the day, Japanese Camellia flowers were principally visited by the Japanese white-eye (Zosterops erythropleura erythropleura 5.), a native bird, although insects and squirrels also visited to a lesser degree.

The purpose of this research presents a method to position and makes the structure for eco-corridors reasonably with collectable analysing results of various effects shown in mammals' road-kill at 429 points. Target animals of this research are Leopard cat, Siberian weasel, Raccoon dog, Korean hare, Eurasian red squirrel, Siberian chipmunk and Water deer. The results derived from the empirical analysis on the contents above are followed. First, according to the results as for Leopard cat road kill analysis, which is designated as Endangered Species Class II, the eco-corridor might be located at near village having stead food in order to decrease the frequencies of road-kill, because its road kill points were mainly collected at 4 lane hilly road with mountain-road-farm area geological type of. Second, because Siberian weasel's road kill was detected at 2 lane hilly road with mountain-road-stream geological type, the eco-corridor might be located at near a mill to decrease road-kill frequencies. Third, the road-kill frequency of Eurasian red squirrel can be reduced when the eco-corridor is located at the area across coniferous tree near 4 lane west sea freeway with mountain-road-mountain. Fourth, the road-kill of Raccoon dog can be reduced when the eco-corridor is located at 4 lane mountain road or hilly road with the geological type having farm land-road-mountain(stream). Fifth, Korean hare's road-kill can be reduced when the eco-corridor is located at grass land across ridge line of mountain, because wild rabbit road kill was happened at 4 lane mountain road or 2 lane mountain road(mountain-road-mountain). Sixth, As for Siberian chipmunk, the eco-corridor might be located at the side slope of mountain road at 2 lane mountain road under the speed of 60km/h with mountain-road-mountain. Seventh, For Water deer, the eco-corridor might be located at 4 lane hilly road with mountain-road-farm land. As for Common otter, Amur hedgehog, Yellow-throated marten, Weasel, it is difficult to specify the proper site of eco-corridor due to the lack of data. Eco-corridors for carnivores might be well located at 4 lane hilly road or 2 lane hilly road with mountain-road-farm land, and the track for herbivores might be well located as a overhead bridge on mountain-road-mountain type across mountains. In order to position eco-corridors for wildlife properly, we have to research animal's behavior with ecological background, and to consider the local uniqueness and regularly collect the empirical road-kill data in long term 3 to 5 year, which can be the foundation for the more suitable place of wild life eco-corridors.
