Successful Emergency Treatment in Bradypus variegatus following Non-Hemorrhagic Hypovolemic Shock [PDF]

Acta Scientiae Veterinariae, 2020
Background: The brown-throated sloth (Bradypus variegatus) occurs from the Nicaragua to Brazil. In brazilian amazonian, these animals are rescued with illnesses caused by anthropic actions. Emergencial treatment of sloths is complex because is a lack of specie-specific information allied to a particularly physiology.

From armadillos to sloths: Patterns and variations in xenarthran coronary anatomy

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Species of the superorder Xenarthra play a vital ecological role in the Neotropics. Despite their evolutionary significance, anatomical studies on their coronary circulation remain scarce. This study investigated the coronary anatomy of 82 hearts from nine Xenarthra species across the Dasypodidae, Myrmecophagidae, and Bradypodidae.

Comparative assessment of local ecological knowledge and line‐transect surveys for assessing species occupancy

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 7, Issue 12, December 2025.
Comparing Local Ecological Knowledge(LEK) to Line‐Transect Surveys for Estimation of Species Occupancy in Central Amazon. We highlight the potential of complementing LEK‐based approaches with traditional surveys to attempt more comprehensive, rapid and cost‐effective monitoring of biodiversity.
