چکیده
گوسفند وحشی یکی از طعمههای یوزپلنگ است که در مناطق کوهستانی و تپهماهوری زیست می‌کند. این گونه بدلیل کاهش شدید جمعیت آهو و جبیر در نیم قرن گذشته، به طعمه شماره یک یوزپلنگ در ایران تبدیل شده است. از این رو در این مطالعه به شناسایی زیستگاههای اولویتدار قوچ و میش در فلات مرکزی ایران که مناطق منتخب برای حفاظت از یوزپلنگ آسیایی می‌باشند، پرداخته شد. در مطالعه حاضر مدلسازی زیستگاه گوسفند وحشی در فلات مرکزی ایران با استفاده از مدلهای توزیع صورت گرفته است. مدلسازی زیستگاه گونه با استفاده از نه مدل در بسته نرمافزاری Biomod2 انجام شد. نتایج نشان داد در تمامی مدلها، فاصله از منابع آبی، فاصله از روستا، معادن، مزارع و شیب از مهمترین متغیرها و دو متغیر ارتفاع و فاصله از جاده به عنوان کم اهمیتترین متغیرها شناخته شدند. بر اساس نتایج، نیمی از مساحت مطلوب این گونه در خارج از مرزهای مناطق حفاظت‌شده قرار دارد. همچنین با توجه به اینکه نقاط حضور قوچ و میش در فلات مرکزی ایران همپوشانی بالایی با یوزپلنگ آسیایی دارد، لذا مدیریت زیستگاه آن به‌طور مستقیم در حفاظت از یوزپلنگ آسیایی تأثیر مثبت دارد.
