AB  - Researchers examined difference in the abundance of mammals in post-fire silvicultural management stands within a pine forest in Samcheok, Gangwon province, South Korea, from 2008-2010. Researchers recorded the tracks of 12 mammal species, amur hedgehogs (<I>Erinaceus amurensis</I>), Japanese moles (<I>Mogera wogura</I>), raccoon dogs (<I>Nyctereutes procyonoides</I>), Siberian weasels (<I>Mustela sibirica</I>), European badgers (<I>Meles meles</I>), Bengal cats (<I>Prionailurus bengalensis</I>), wild boars (<I>Sus scrofa</I>), roe deer (<I>Caproelus pygargus</I>), water deer (<I>Hydropotes inermis</I>), Korean hares (<I>Lepus coreanus</I>), red squirrels (<I>Sciurus vulgaris</I>) and Siberian chipmunks (<I>Tamias sibiricus</I>). There were significant differences in the number of species and tracks linked to mammals among unburned, post-burned Japanese red pine planted and post-burned untreated stands. Of the 12 mammal species analyzed, six species were related to habitat variables in a stepwise approach with repeated measures. Long-term ecological research is needed to understand post-fire pine forest management.
