Age and sex effects on histological features and in vitro culturing of Antillean manatee (Trichechus manatus manatus, Linnaeus 1758) dermis

Anatomia, Histologia, Embryologia. Journal of Veterinary Medicine Series C
The biobanks from dermal biopsies represent an interesting strategy for biodiversity conservation. Nevertheless, the morphological and cellular patterns of the dermis can be influenced by the age and sex of the individual.

Activities and social interactions in captive Antillean manatees in Mexico

mamm, 2010
Abstract Behavioural research in endangered manatees is essential for successful conservation management. We examined the activities and social interactions of a captive group of Antillean manatees located in the Dolphin Discovery Park in Mexico. The group studied was composed of two adults, one subadult and one calf.

Using craniometrical predictors to infer body size of Antillean manatees

mammalia, 2014
Body size determines many physiological and ecological variables; however, there are few studies on this parameter for the Antillean manatee (Trichechus manatus manatus). We studied an osteological collection and data­ bases of Antillean manatees in Mexico to infer body mea­ surements and to determine the body mass (BM)/body length (BL) relationship ...

Hematology and clinical biochemistry profiles in Antillean manatee (Trichechus manatus manatus) from different types of captivities and free living in Northeast Brazil.

Journal of Aquatic Animal Health, 2020
The Antillean manatee (Trichechus manatus manatus) can be found along the Brazilian northern and northeastern coasts. Previous studies on the clinical biochemistry of these animals were conducted in North America and the Caribbean, whereas little is ...

Case report on helminth parasites of a necropsied Antillean manatee (Trichechus manatus manatus) in Belize.

Veterinary Parasitology: Regional Studies and Reports, 2020
Sirenians are parasitized by a number of nematodes and trematodes, most which appear to be host specific. Reports of parasitism in the West Indian Manatee, Trichechus manatus, exist for several regions within the Atlantic Ocean, the Gulf of Mexico, and the Caribbean Sea, but there is a lack of parasitic data existing for the manatee subspecies living ...

SEROPREVALENCE OFTOXOPLASMA GONDIIIN CAPTIVE ANTILLEAN MANATEE (TRICHECHUS MANATUS MANATUS) IN BRAZIL

Journal of Zoo and Wildlife Medicine, 2016
Antillean manatees ( Trichechus manatus manatus) are aquatic mammals that inhabit marine waters from Central America to the northeastern region of Brazil, and they are an endangered species. Infection with Toxoplasma gondii through intake of water or food contaminated with oocysts has been reported among marine mammals.
