摘　　要：红外相机(camera traps)作为对野生动物进行"非损伤"性采样的技术,已成为研究动物多样性、种群生态学及行为学的常用手段之一。其发展和普及为中国野生动物多样性和物种保育研究带来了诸多机会。如今,国内大多数自然保护区都在运用红外相机技术开展物种监测工作。本文结合20年来已发表的相关研究,从内容、实验设计以及发展趋势方面,总结了目前红外相机技术在应用过程中出现的共性问题;并就相机对动物的干扰性、影像识别、研究的适用范围及安全保障四个方面,对该项技术在实践中存在的限制进行了探讨。最后结合红外相机技术未来的发展方向,提出了建立技术规范、数据集成和共享、影像数据版权维护、提高监测效率等问题。Infrared-triggered camera （camera trap） is a ＂non-invasive＂ method for detecting or recording wild animals, and is a useful tool for studying animal diversity, population ecology and animal behavior. The de- velopment of infrared camera traps facilitates contemporary biodiversity research and conservation efforts in China. In addition to researchers, most Chinese nature reserves are using camera traps to monitor animals. Based on publications from the past two decades, we summarized common issues related to research content, experimental design, and trends in infrared camera usage. We also discuss the drawbacks and limitations of infrared cameras in terms of disturbance to animals, image identification, and scope of application and secu- rity of the cameras in the field. Finally, we provide direction for the future establishment of monitoring pro- tocols, data integration and sharing, and improving monitoring efficiency in using camera traps.
