Effects of Landscape Characteristics on Abundance of Giant Anteaters in Intensively Farmed Areas
In this study, we analyzed the abundance of giant anteaters in 55 landscapes within a 34,000 km2 region that has undergone significant transformation due to intensive agricultural practices, particularly the cultivation of sugarcane. In each landscape, we used three camera traps to record the presence of this species. Our occupancy models revealed that
