Acompanhamento das alterações post-mortem (Glicólise) no músculo do jacaré do pantanal (Caiman crocodilus yacare) [PDF]

Ciência e Tecnologia de Alimentos, 2003
This paper presents a study of glycogen degradation in longissimus dorsi muscle of pantanal alligator. Glycogen concentration and muscle pH measurements were assessed. Glycolysis took about 50 hours to complete. Initial muscle pH value were in the limits of 6.6 and 6.7 and after 36 hours they dropped to 5.5-5.6.

Osteohistological signal from the smallest known phytosaur femur reveals slow growth and new insights into the evolution of growth in Archosauria

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 247, Issue 3-4, Page 556-575, September/October 2025.
The paucity of small, skeletally immature individuals representing the earliest ontogenetic stages of extinct archosaurs complicates our understanding of the growth dynamics within and between species. The opportune finding of the smallest phytosaur femora reveals slow growth, a surprising signal considering that larger phytosaurs in North America have

A new Crocodyloidea from the middle Eocene of Zamora (Duero Basin, Spain)

The Anatomical Record, Volume 308, Issue 6, Page 1692-1706, June 2025.
Abstract The eusuchian crocodyliforms recorded in the Eocene levels of the Spanish Duero Basin belong to three lineages: Planocraniidae, with the species Duerosuchus piscator; Alligatoroidea, represented by several specimens of the genus Diplocynodon; and Crocodyloidea, which includes several specimens traditionally attributed to Asiatosuchus.

Perceptions and reality in fisher coexistence with aquatic predators in the Peruvian Amazon

Animal Conservation, Volume 27, Issue 4, Page 566-579, August 2024.
The perceptions and reality of ‘human–wildlife conflict’ are infrequently compared, but this relationship is key to determining how negative outcomes can be mitigated. We trained fishers to complete fishing registers to record damage to nets by six large aquatic piscivores (two caiman, two dolphins, two otters) in Amazonian Peru, and compared these ...

Long‐distance swimming by African lions in Uganda

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2024.
We present a visual documentation of long‐distance swimming by African lions in Uganda. This first recorded visual evidence shows lions in the Queen Elizabeth National Park are engaging in risky behavior to find females. Abstract Earth's most imperiled and iconic wildlife are facing tough decisions under increasing human pressure and limited resources.

Ontogenetic and interelemental study of appendicular bones of Caiman latirostris Daudin, 1802 sheds light on osteohistological variability in crocodylians

Journal of Morphology, Volume 285, Issue 4, April 2024.
This in‐depth investigation provides unprecedented insight into the kinds of bone tissues that Caiman latirostris deposits during growth. Microstructural variability is related to differences in the prevailing environment. Abstract The osteohistology of vertebrates provides a reliable source to deduce biological information, particularly regarding ...

Diets of Caiman crocodilus yacare from different habitats in the Brazilian Pantanal

, 1996
The diet of Caiman crocodilus yacare was investigated during the dry season in different habitats of the Pantanal, Brazil. Stomach contents of 196 animals were analysed by prey class, the total number of prey, and the number of caimans eating each prey ...
