The genus Mazama stands out among the Neotropical deer due to their wide intra and interspecific karyotypic diversification, which is associated with an accentuated chromosomal fragility. There are reports of heterozygous Robertsonian translocation (RT) carriers in a free-range population of Mazama gouazoubira (brown brocket deer), as well as in ...

Late Quaternary population expansion in gray brocket deer [ Subulo gouazoubira (G. Fisher, 1814), Cervidae, Mammalia] in Brazil [PDF]
There is little information about the changes in the abundance of mammalian species in South America during the late Quaternary, which is a key parameter to understanding past ecological and evolutionary dynamics. Here, we describe a conspicuous increase

Do precipitation and food affect the reproduction of brown brocket deer Mazama gouazoubira (G. Fischer 1814) in conditions of semi-captivity? [PDF]
The births of brown brocket deer ( Mazama gouazoubira) in a secondary lower montane forest called "yunga" in northwestern Argentina were compared with rainfall.

Effects of laparoscopy on the cardiorespiratory system of brown brocket deer (Mazama gouazoubira) anesthetized with ketamine/ xylazine/ midazolam combination and isoflurane Efeitos da laparoscopia sobre o sistema cardiorrespiratório de veados-catingueiro (Mazama gouazoubira) anestesiados com a associação cetamina/xilazina/midazolam e isofluorano [PDF]
Laparoscopy is not widely used as a tool to perform assisted reproduction techniques in South American cervids; thus, scarce information in literature is available regarding its effects and appropriate anesthetic protocols to perform it.

Evaluation of potential reproductive seasonality in brown brocket deer (Mazama gouazoubira) bucks
Photoperiod is the main cue that controls seasonal reproduction in deer from temperate regions, like secretion of testosterone by the testis, neck enlargement, and testis development. However, little is known about its effect on the reproduction of tropical deer species. This research aimed to assess the potential seasonality of the brown brocket deer (

Drivers of geophagy by red brocket deer (Mazama americana) at Amazonian interior forest mineral licks. [PDF]
Mineral licks are critical resources for herbivores across the world, including the Peruvian Amazon, but the services they provide visiting animals are largely unknown. We tested three hypotheses for geophagical behavior in the red brocket deer, one of the most common visitors to Amazonian mineral licks, at mineral licks in the Peruvian Amazon using ...

Large- and medium-bodied terrestrial mammals of the Upper Berbice region of Guyana [PDF]
Large mammals are key contributors to forest ecosystems globally, but Neotropical mammal populations are understudied. We employed remotely triggered camera traps and track surveys to assess the mammal community in the newly accessible upper Berbice ...

Contrasting origin of B chromosomes in two cervids (Siberian roe deer and grey brocket deer) unravelled by chromosome-specific DNA sequencing [PDF]
Background B chromosomes are dispensable and variable karyotypic elements found in some species of animals, plants and fungi. They often originate from duplications and translocations of host genomic regions or result from hybridization ...
