Objective To observate the reproductive features of wide original Marmota himalayana,and explore an optimum method that is economical, practical and on a large scale to raising Marmota himalayana baby.Methods Provided suitable environment and conditions for feeding and management,entirely artificial feeding and care by mother. More data were collected and statistics from the pregnancy rate,each litter size,survival rate and observation the growth of young Marmota himalayana.Results In 2010,92Marmota himalayana offspring(F1 generation)have been successfully weaned from 56 couples and the survival rate of natural reproduction was 90.8 percent.Now breeding population had been established with 50 couples of wild original Marmota himalayana and 20 couples of F1 generation,which have laid the foundation for reaching standard requirements. Conclusion This method was one of higher reproductive and survival rate,low cost and simple to operate, it should be promoted to scale produce the Marmota himalayana as laboratory animals.
