Neo‐tropical felid activity patterns in relation to potential prey and intraguild competitors in the Calakmul Biosphere Reserve, Mexico

Biotropica, Volume 55, Issue 5, Page 969-977, September 2023., 2023
There is little temporal segregation between the nocturnal activities of jaguars, pumas, and ocelots in Mexico's Calakmul Biosphere Reserve, although pumas were more active closer to dawn. Jaguars had low activity overlap with species likely to be common prey, whereas ocelots had high overlap with their potential prey.

Drivers of jaguar (Panthera onca) and puma (Puma concolor) predation on endangered primates within a transformed landscape in southern Mexico

Biotropica, Volume 55, Issue 5, Page 1058-1068, September 2023., 2023
Jaguar and puma seem to increase predation on endangered primates under certain environmental conditions. Abstract Human pressures have increasingly placed keystone species, such as large cats, under threat. Together with forest loss, prey depletion is one of the main threats to the survival of jaguars (Panthera onca) and pumas (Puma concolor ...

In 1951, 24 animals of both sexes of Chilla or Grey fox from continental Magallanes region, Chile were released on Tierra del Fuego Island, to control a European rabbit irruption detrimental to sheep ranching.

Diverse anthropogenic disturbances shift Amazon forests along a structural spectrum

Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, Volume 21, Issue 1, Page 24-32, February 2023., 2023
Amazon forests are being degraded by myriad anthropogenic disturbances, altering ecosystem and climate function. We analyzed the effects of a range of land‐use and climate‐change disturbances on fine‐scale canopy structure using a large database of profiling canopy lidar collected from disturbed and mature Amazon forest plots.
