Abstract
Striped hyena is a member of carnivorous species that eats dead animals and plays an important role in clearing nature and preventing disease. There is little information about the biology and distribution of this species in Iran. In this study habitat and distribution of striped hyena have evaluated in lashgardar protected area. At first study area divided in two parts and determined traversal paths in each part. Striped hyenas present point was investigated with the direct observation and using siegne like dung, hyaena carcasses and the track. Field observation of the hyena presence point recorded on the Map by using Gps data in Arc GIS 9.2 software. Field Survey carried from October 2010 to octobr 2011 and Lasted 30 days. Environmental variables by the presence/absence data in 80 locations recorded and data analyzed by using binary logistic regression. The results showed that hyaena suitable habitat depends on altitude and habitat type, distance from residential and the intensity of land use change. The most frequency of the sings observed in part 2.
