The proteomics of roadside hawk (Rupornis magnirostris), broad-snouted caiman (Caiman latirostris) and loggerhead sea turtle (Caretta caretta) tears [PDF]
BMC Veterinary Research, 2020 Background Tears play an important role in ocular surface protection, and help wild animals maintain visual acuity in the face of air and water friction. The proteomics of tears has only been described for mammals. The knowledge of the proteomics of wild

Disturbed areas promote more parental care and less nesting preference in females of broad-snouted caiman (Caiman latirostris) [PDF]
Animal WelfareThe successful survival of crocodilian hatchlings is largely dependent upon nest care by females. Nonetheless, it is crucial to understand how environmental degradation affects nest site selection and parental behaviour in female crocodilians. Therefore,

Biomarkers of genotoxicity, immunotoxicity and oxidative stress on Caiman latirostris (Broad-snouted caiman) hatchlings exposed to pesticide formulations and mixtures widely used in agriculture [PDF]
Environmental Advances, 2021 Pesticide formulations are currently considered as one of the main factors responsible for environmental contamination worldwide. Consequently, several wild species can be affected by the over use of pesticides related to agriculture activity. The aim of
