HEMATOLOGY AND PLASMA BIOCHEMISTRY REFERENCE INTERVALS FOR FREE-LIVING ADULT CHIMANGO CARACARA (MILVAGO CHIMANGO) DURING THE NONBREEDING SEASON

Journal of Zoo and Wildlife Medicine, 2023
: Hematological and blood biochemistry values are useful in assessing the physiological, nutritional, and overall health status of captive and free-living wildlife. For the chimango caracara (Milvago chimango), the most common raptor species in Argentina,

First Record of the Chimango Caracara (Milvago chimango) Using Shrimp as Prey

Journal of Raptor Research, 2019
The Chimango Caracara (Milvago chimango; hereafter, chimango) is one of the most common raptors in southern South America (White et al. 1994). Due to its high ecological plasticity, the species occupies a wide variety of habitats from mountainous to ...

Visual acuity in an opportunistic raptor, the chimango caracara (Milvago chimango)

Physiology & Behavior, 2016
Raptors are always considered to have an extraordinary resolving power of their eyes (high visual acuity). Nevertheless, raptors differ in their diet and foraging tactics, which could lead to large differences in visual acuity. The visual acuity of an opportunist bird of prey, the Chimango caracara (Mivalgo chimango) was estimated by operant ...

Variation in boldness and novelty response between rural and urban predatory birds: The Chimango Caracara, Milvago chimango as study case

Behavioural Processes, 2020
The study of traits that enable species to thrive in urban habitats is critical to a better understanding the evolution of urban ecosystems. Here, we examined variation in boldness, neophobia, and exploratory behavior in a generalist raptor, the Chimango Caracara, Milvago chimango, occurring in areas with different urbanization level.

Biparental Care in a Generalist Raptor, the Chimango Caracara in Central Argentina

Journal of Raptor Research
. The allocation of parental care behaviors between the sexes may be influenced by the species' mating system, degree of sexual size dimorphism, and predictability of food resources.

Red-backed Hawks supply food to scavenging Chimango Caracaras

Emu - Austral Ornithology, 2009
Positive interactions between species of terrestrial vertebrates occur frequently and it is common among birds. However, such interactions have generally been overlooked in raptor field studies. We analysed interactions between Red-backed Hawks (Buteo polyosoma) and Chimango Caracaras (Milvago chimango) in order to determine the characteristics of the ...
