초록

양서류는 생태학적으로 육상생태계와 육수생태계를 연결하는 분류군이며, 생태계 먹이사슬에서 매우 중요한 역할을 수행하고 있다. 전 세계적으로 약 5,948종이 분포하는 것으로 알려져 있으나, 산업혁명 이후 산업화와 도시화로 인하여 종 및 개체군의 감소가 발생하고 있으며, 특히, 인공 수로에 의한 서식처 단절 또는 파편화를 심화시키는 요인이 되고 있어 인공 수로 내 야생동물 생존성 향상을 위하여 수로 탈출시설을 설치하여 저감하고 있다. 본 연구는 주로 산림 인근에서 서식하는 무당개구리를 대상으로 수로 탈출시설의 경사각, 수로 높이, 운영 중인 시설에서의 탈출률 및 이동 거리를 분석하였다. 수로 탈출시설의 경사각은 50° 및 60°에서는 높이와 상관없이 비교적 유사한 탈출 성공률을 나타내는 반면에 경사각 70°에서는 높이 40cm에서만 비교적 높은 탈출 성공률을 나타났다. 운영 중인 수로 탈출시설에서의 탈출 성공률은 14.71%로 이용률은 매우 저조한 것으로 나타났으며, 수로 측면 벽을 따라 이동함으로써 수로 탈출시설의 인지율이 매우 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 그러므로 무당개구리를 위한 수로 탈출시설의 경우 60° 각도로 조성 가능하며, 인공 수로의 측면 벽을 60° 이내로 조성할 경우 무당개구리의 양방향 이동이 자유로움으로 기존의 수로 탈출시설의 낮은 이용률을 극복하고 수로의 이동 및 고사로 인한 영향을 최소화할 것으로 판단된다. 또한, 수로 탈출시설 간격을 설치 기준인 30m보다 간격을 좁히고, 경사로를 상·하류 양방향으로 조성하게 되면, 무당개구리 이외의 양서류, 파충류, 소형 포유류 등의 탈출 성공률이 향상될 것으로 판단된다.

Amphibians are a taxonomic group that ecologically connects terrestrial ecosystems and aquatic ecosystems. They play a very important role in the food chain of the ecosystem. It is known that there are about 5,948 species distributed all over the world, but after the Industrial Revolution, due to industrialization and urbanization, there has been a decrease in species and populations. In particular, it is becoming a factor in exacerbating habitat fragmentation or fragmentation due to artificial canals. In orderto improve the survivalrate of wild animals in artificial canals, escape facilities are installed to reduce it. This study analyzed the slope, height of the escape facility, escape rate, and travel distance in the operating facility for Bombina orientalis, which mainly inhabits near forests. The slope of the escape facility showed a relatively similar escape success rate regardless of height at 50° and 60°, while at 70°, it showed a relatively high escape success rate at only 40cm in height. The success rate of escape from the waterway escape facility in operation was 14.71%, showing a very low utilization rate, and the recognition rate of the artificial canal escape facility was found to be very low as it moved along the side wall of the artificial canal. Therefore, in the case of a waterway escape facility for Bombina orientalis, it is possible to construct it at an angle of 60°, and if the side walls of the artificial canals are built within 60°, Bombina orientalis can move freely in both directions, overcoming the low utilization rate of existing waterway escape facilities. It is expected to minimize the impact of movement and death of artificial canals. In addition, if the spacing between escape facilities is narrowed from the installation standard of 30m and ramps are constructed in both directions upstream and downstream, the escape success rate of amphibians,reptiles, and small mammals otherthan lady frogs is expected to improve.
