The Agoutis: A Future Model for Ecologically Relevant Neuroscience and Physiology In Natura

Ethology, Volume 130, Issue 12, December 2024.
Recent advances in behavioral monitoring and wireless physiology make neuroscience in the wild a viable option for larger animal models. Here we spotlight one such species, the agouti (Dasyprocta spp.) a large promising rodent model for the future of neuroscience in natura.

Folding of the cerebellar cortex is clade‐specific in form but universal in degree

Journal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 532, Issue 4, April 2024.
York et al. show that the folding of the cerebellar cortex, likethe cerebral cortex, has recognizable, clade‐specific spatial patterns acrossclades, but scales universally in degree depending on its combination ofsurface area and thickness, as predicted from the physics of an expanding,self‐avoiding surface.

Nocturnal activity by the primarily diurnal Central American agouti (Dasyprocta punctata) in relation to environmental conditions, resource abundance and predation risk [PDF]

, 2009
An animal's fitness is in part based on its ability to manage the inherent risks (foraging costs, predation, exposure to disease) with the benefits (resource gain, access to mates, social interactions) of activity (Abrams 1991, Altizer et al. 2003, Lima &
