This study was designed to determine qualitatively, the source of gastric vagal nerve fibres in the Agouti. A total of 18 male and female adult agoutis were used for the present investigation. Following anaesthesia, laparotomy was performed and the stomach exteriorized.

ABSTRACT Biological invasions are one of the major drivers of biodiversity decline and have been shown to have far‐reaching consequences for society and the economy. Preventing the introduction and spread of alien species represents the most effective solution to reducing their impacts on nature and human well‐being.

Frugivory and the importance of seeds in the diet of the orange-rumped agouti (Dasyprocta leporina) in French Guiana [PDF]
This study described the diet of the orange-rumped agouti Dasyprocta leporina in French Guiana. Five food types were identified in stomach contents: seeds, pulp, fibre, leaves and animal matter. D.

Cache pilferage in red-rumped agoutis (Dasyprocta leporina) (Rodentia) [PDF]
Food hoarding is the handling of food to conserve it for future use, and food hoarding animals have the capacity to control the availability of food in space and time (Smith & Reichman 1984; Vanderwall 1990). The benefits derived from this control include an improved individual probability of survival during periods of food scarcity, optimized foraging

Anthropogenic disturbances simplify frugivory interactions in Amazonia
Frugivory interactions are essential ecological processes for the regeneration of tropical forests, ensuring ecosystem resilience following disturbances. However, little is known about how frugivory interactions are shaped by anthropogenic disturbances, especially in Amazonia – one of the most biodiverse ecosystems on Earth.

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.
