摘要
In this study the temporal trends of common vole's active burrow index in alfalfa fields were evaluated. The investigation was conducted in southern Hungary after an outbreak of common vole in 2014, during the growing population phase within two consecutive years. The average number of active burrows in 2017 was about 5 times higher than in 2016. In all sampling sites the temporal trends of active burrow index showed exponential increasing with 24% (2016) and 100% (2017) growing rate.
