Assessing abundance-suitability models to prioritize conservation areas for the dwarf caimans in South America. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
This study identified conservation priorities for the South American dwarf caimans (Paleosuchus palpebrosus and P. trigonatus) relying on robust species distribution and abundance models. We support that environmental suitability and spatial abundance are not always congruent and cannot be considered reliable surrogates for one another, and ...

Carcass and meat characterization of "yacare overo" (Caiman latirostris) and "yacare negro" (Caiman yacare)

, 2007
Dez jacarés (Caiman latirostris ou jacaré de-papo amarelo e Caiman jacaré) de diferentes comprimentos e pesos vivos foram carneados com o fim de determinar valores de rendimento de carcaça e qualidade da carne. O rendimento de carcaça foi de 54% correspondendo um 62% a porção cárnea.

Estimating Detection Probability and Abundance for the Black Caiman (Melanosuchus niger) and the Yacare Caiman (Caiman yacare)

, 2016
The black caiman (Melanosuchus niger) and the yacare caiman (Caiman yacare) have in the past been exposed to overexploitation due to the economic profit for their hides, and therefore suffered from great declines in population sizes, especially black caimans.
