Human-wildlife ecological interactions shape Escherichia coli population and resistome in two sloth species from Costa Rica [PDF]
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a global health concern, with natural ecosystems acting as reservoirs for resistant bacteria. We assessed AMR in Escherichia coli isolated from two wild sloth species in Costa Rica. E.

Estudio comparativo de la anatomía de las especies perezoso de dos dedos choloepus hoffmanni y choloepus didactylus [PDF]
Los perezosos didáctilos Choloepus Hoffmann y Choloepus didactylus, hacen parte del mismo género y del suborden Folivora. Estos animales habitan estrictamente en los árboles, evitando así depredadores terrestres como el jaguar, la anaconda, el puma, entre otros.

A new karyotype for the two-toed sloth Choloepus didactylus (Magalonychidae, Xenarthra)
Xenarthra, one of the four mammalian superorders, is exclusively found in Central and South America and is possibly positioned at the base of the Eutherian phylogenetic tree. Cytogenetic studies of this group are very few and mainly restricted to the description of the karyotypes after conventional staining, with just a few reported banding patterns ...

Hoffmann's two-toed sloth I: Complete myology in the thoracic limb of Choloepus (Pilosa: Xenarthra). [PDF]
Two‐toed sloths use their thoracic limbs for more frequent and prolonged suspensory support than three‐toed sloths and accordingly demonstrate myological traits consistent with stability of the pectoral girdle, enhanced flexor force/torque applied at the elbow joint, and grip on the support.

Hoffmann's two-toed sloth II: Muscle architectural properties in the thoracic limb of Choloepus (Pilosa: Xenarthra). [PDF]
Two‐toed sloths use their thoracic limbs for more frequent and greater suspensory support than three‐toed sloths and have muscle architectural properties consistent with stability of the pectoral girdle, enhanced flexor force/torque applied at the shoulder and elbow joints, and grip on the support as indicated by their myology. Abstract Two‐toed sloths

Morphological and Imaging Characterization of the Eye and Adnexa of the Lesser Anteater (Tamandua tetradactyla). [PDF]
ABSTRACT The southern tamandua (Tamandua tetradactyla) is a species vulnerable to environmental disturbances, largely due to increasing overlap between its natural habitat and anthropogenically modified landscapes. Detailed anatomical knowledge of the eye and orbital structures, supported by imaging and histological analyses, is essential to improve ...
