  • Plateau zokor(Myospalax baileyi)is one of special species in the QinghaiTibet plateau, which live primarily underground and feed on plant root and tubers. Plateau zokors mainly distribute on the alpine meadow and alpine steppe. They play an important role in the grassland ecosystem and their status in the grassland ecosystem can not be replaced by terrestrial herbivorous animals. However, the overincreased population of plateau zokor can also break the pattern of dynamic balance of the soilgrassanimalmouse,results in the decline of grassland productivity and biodiversity, and become a serious threat to grassland environment security. This paper described the factors, which might affect the plateau zokor on choosing habitats, and reviewed recent advances on research about plateau zokor. It also discussed prospects for further research on plateau zokor control.
