	Daurian Hedgehog - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Daurian Hedgehog Mesechinus dauuricus is a solitary small hedgehog.
		Currently, the Daurian hedgehog seems to have recovered and tends to move northwards and closer to cities due to more abundant food, less danger from agricultural activities and newfound human tolerance for their presence.
		Some scientists put the Daurian hedgehog into the Erinaceus family as a subspecies of the Western European hedgehog.

	Daurian Hedgehog
		Adult Daurian hedgehogs are 15 to 20 centimeters long and weighs up to 1 kilogramm (usually around 600 grams).
		As of today, Daurian hedgehog seems to recover and tend to move northwards and closer to cities due to more abundant food, less danger from agricultural activities and toleration from humans.
		Cases of new populations of hedgehogs ignited by several adults moved by man to new area are reported.

	Terrestrial Ecoregions -- Daurian forest steppe (PA0804) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		Visit this ecoregion during periods of migration and you’ll encounter tens of thousands of mallard ducks and other migratory birds feeding amid the grasses and wetlands of the Daurian Forest Steppe.
		In the spring, 6,000 to 8,000 Mongolian gazelles, or zeren, migrate through the Daurian Forest Steppe to northern birthing grounds.
		Daurian hedgehogs burrow and nest among the grasses of the steppe, while wolves prowl the birch forests at night.

	Birds of Central Siberia -> Daurian Redstart (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		The Daurian Redstart is a species of the Far East and South Siberia, the range of which is rather poorly known.
		Evidence suggests that the species may be expanding westwards, and observations to the west of Central Siberia lend support to this supposition: on May 30,1937, wandering Daurian Redstarts were encountered in Barabinsk (Gluzsky 1946) and in Tomsk on May 28, 1974 (Gyngazov and Milovidov 1977).
		E.A. Krutovskaya described a hybridizing pair consisting of a male Daurian Redstart and a female Redstart that was feeding nestlings in a nest box near a building of the meteorological station in the Stolby Reserve (Krutovskaya 1958).

	British Birds - Identification of Daurian Jackdaw
		Article on the identification of Daurian Jackdaw [Corvus dauuricus] and in particular the separation of first-winter Daurian and Eurasian Jackdaw.
		Daurian Jackdaw [Corvus dauuricus] has three distinct age-related plumages: both juveniles and adults are pied, but first-years have largely fl plumage.
		As a consequence, first-winter Daurian jackdaws may be overlooked in Europe.

		The total number of birds that make a stop for rest during spring migration within the territory of the hollow is not less than 3 million, and not less than 6 million during autumn migration.
		The Russian area of Daurian steppe is a part of winter territory for gazelles, a vitally important area for numerous (180000-200000 heads) migration population, bred in Mongolia
		Potential opportunities of the region for conservation of unique natural complexes of Daurian ecoregion are not availed because of a number of social and economic reasons.

	WWF - Daurian Steppe - A Global 200 Ecoregion
		The Daurian steppe ecoregion is made of these terrestrial ecoregions: Daurian forest steppe; Mongolian-Manchurian grassland.
		It is a sea of grass that forms the best and most intact example of an undisturbed steppe ecosystem and is also one of the last areas in the Palearctic that still supports stable herds of larger vertebrates.
		A portion of the fauna comprises of the Pallas' cat (Felis manul), Daurian hedgehog (Hemiechinus dauricus), and Mongolian marmot (Marmot sibirica).

	White-naped Crane - ICF
		In 1993, together with Russian colleagues, ICF co-hosted an historic meeting of Russian, Chinese and Mongolian specialists to develop an international agreement for the conservation of the wetland and grassland regions shared by the three nations on what are known as the Daurian Steppes (another vernacular name of the White-naped Crane is the Daurian crane).
		East of the Daurian Steppes, the lowlands of the Amur River also provide excellent nesting habitat for these cranes in both Russia and China.
		In 1994, through the work of Dr. Sergei Smirenski with assistance from ICF and colleagues in Japan, Muraviovka Park was created on the Amur lowlands to include 12,000 acres of prime nesting habitat for 10-12 White-naped Crane pairs.

		The hue arising over the Amur Albazinsk fortress became an object of enmity for the Chinese emperor and his generals, who then already dreamed of expanding their influence over all of Russian Siberia.
		A local Sobor / Council of the Russian Church in 1681 adopted a resolution about the sending to the far-off city on the Lena and Amur, "to the Daurian people", "religious -- archimandrites, hegumens or priests, both learned and good, for the enlightening of unbelievers with the law of Christ".

		The vast expanses of grass in North America and Eurasia once sustained vast migrations of large vertebrates such as buffalo (Bubalus bubalis), saiga (Saiga tatarica), and Tibetan antelopes (Pantholops hodgsoni) and kiang (Equus hemionus).
		Such extraordinary phenomena now occur only in isolated pockets, primarily in the Daurian Steppe and Tibetan Plateau (see Montane Grasslands.
		The extraordinary floral communities of the Eurasian steppes and the North American Great Plains, have been largely extirpated through conversion to agriculture.

		This was a travel day -- our lunch stop produced Forest Wagtail and Daurian Redstart; when we arrived at Lake Khanka about 6:30 p.m.
		Every day we woke to the sound of both Common and Oriental Cuckoos calling; one morning our Russian leader, Yuri Gluschenko found a male Asian Paradise Flycatcher in the woods directly behind the cook tent.

		What marks this bird as a Daurian is the white patch on the wing.
		This bird is related to one of my first finds a bit more than a year ago, the Red-flanked Bluetail.
