Research, Society and Development, 2020 The brown brocket deer (Mazama gouazoubira) is a deer that lives in South America, particularly in Brazil and nearby countries such as Uruguay and Argentina. This study aimed to describe the topography, morphology, wraps and renal arterial segments of brocket deer. Used two specimens of M.

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 1031-1042, August 2025.ABSTRACT 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 in the abundance of the gray brocket deer (Subulo gouazoubira G.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2025.This paper describes a relational land‐based learning experiential field course that bridges Western and Indigenous scientific worldviews. We describe the impact of incorporating traditional Indigenous paradigms and knowledge into post‐secondary science curriculum and the challenges inherent in decolonizing Western science.

Austral Ecology, Volume 50, Issue 7, July 2025.We found rich and compositionally different assemblages of medium and large‐sized mammals in protected areas on the southern edge of Amazon. However, both have high rates of mammal defaunation. We argue that anthropogenic threats in the Amazon Arc of Deforestation are eroding large ungulate populations, especially peccaries.

Gaps and opportunities in on‐host winter tick (Dermacentor albipictus) surveillance in North America
The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 89, Issue 4, May 2025.The investigation and management of the impacts of winter tick infestations on moose in North America necessitates coordinated surveillance and intervention efforts. The current absence of searching for winter ticks on other potential ungulate hosts, largely based on historical beliefs of predilection from limited captive studies, has created a ...

Perceived Predation Risk Affects Mammal Behavior at Amazonian Mineral Licks
Biotropica, Volume 57, Issue 2, March 2025.Mineral licks are critical resources for herbivores in Amazonia and other tropical regions which may be deficient in dietary minerals or consuming alkaloid‐laced leaves which may cause gastrointestinal issues. Animals visiting mineral licks must balance the benefits of relief of physiological stressors with the risk of predation, and they may employ ...

Applied Vegetation Science, Volume 28, Issue 1, January/March 2025.We show that excluding native grazers from a South American grassy ecosystem leads to strong declines in plant species richness over an 18‐month period. Our results imply that severely defaunated South American ecosystems have retained plant taxa and functional trait complexes that can tolerate intense herbivory, identifying herbivore reintroductions ...

Medium and large mammal responses to fire in a neotropical savanna system in Guyana
Biotropica, Volume 57, Issue 1, January 2025.Mammal responses to fire—both natural and man‐made—in an Indigenous savanna landscape in Guyana were researched with transects for animal signs and live sightings. Species richness showed a non‐linear relationship with time since fire, likely due to differing responses from individual species, which may be explained by habitat preference and post‐fire ...

Selective impacts of subsistence hunting on mammal communities in Manu National Park, Peru
Biotropica, Volume 56, Issue 5, September 2024.We analyzed change in species relative abundance and functional composition of mammal communities, including non‐hunted species, along a hunting pressure gradient and included potential confounding environmental and disturbance gradients (distances to rivers, lakes, settlements, and trails; NDVI at survey point).
