Ovarian and immunological responses to alternating exogenous gonadotropin regimens in the ocelot (Leopardus pardalis) and tigrina (Leopardus tigrinus)

Zoo Biology, 2005
Exogenous gonadotropins frequently are used to stimulate ovarian follicular growth and ovulation in mammalian species, including felids. However, repeated exogenous gonadotropin treatment can result in decreased ovarian responsiveness due to antibody formation.

Time Budget and Activity Patterns of Oncilla Cats (Leopardus tigrinus) in Captivity

Journal of Applied Animal Welfare Science, 2014
Researchers have reported on the diet of Leopardus tigrinus and ecological aspects, but studies of behavior are scarce. The aims of this study were to describe the time budget and activity patterns of 10 captive Leopardus tigrinus individuals. The group had an activity budget of 66% resting, 20.66% moving, 6.08% vigilant, 3.12% feeding, and 4.14% other

Effect of different semen extenders for the storage of chilled sperm in Tigrina ( Leopardus tigrinus )

Theriogenology, 2017
To enhance the conservation of endangered populations, the present study aimed to evaluate whether Tigrinas (Leopardus tigrinus) sperm could be conserved under refrigeration for short periods while maintaining sufficient quality for use in assisted-reproductive techniques (i.e., cryopreservation, in vitro fertilization). For this purpose, semen samples

Noteworthy record of melanism in Leopardus tigrinus from El Cocuy National Natural Park, Colombia

Therya Notes, 2023
Melanism is the excess of dark pigmentation that partially or completely covers the body of an animal.  The presence of melanic individuals is relatively common in several feline species.  The objective of this note is to report the second case of melanism in free-living Leopardus tigrinus in Colombia.

Influence of Cinnamon and Catnip on the Stereotypical Pacing of Oncilla Cats (Leopardus tigrinus) in Captivity

Journal of Applied Animal Welfare Science, 2011
Nonhuman animals in captivity can experience environmental privation that results in their exhibiting abnormal behaviors. Environmental enrichment techniques can help improve their welfare. This study investigated the behavior of 8 zoo-housed oncilla cats (Leopardus tigrinus) in response to 2 odors (catnip and cinnamon) introduced individually into the

Estimating occupancy of the Vulnerable northern tiger cat Leopardus tigrinus in Caatinga drylands

Mammal Research, 2017
Understanding the distribution and habitat preference of threatened species is essential for their conservation. We conducted the first systematic camera trap survey of the Vulnerable northern tiger cat Leopardus tigrinus in Caatinga drylands (Brazil) and tested how its occupancy and detectability patterns are affected by environmental and ...

PARASITOS INTESTINAIS DE Leopardus wiedii E Leopardus tigrinus (FELIDAE) DA FLORESTA NACIONAL DE TRÊS BARRAS, SC

LUMINÁRIA, 2015
Os felí­deos apresentam diferenciados papéis ecológicos e enquanto predadores são importantes e benéficos para os ecossistemas, pois atuam no topo da cadeia alimentar. Quando infectados por algumas formas parasitárias pode ocorrer interferência na sua atividade alimentar atuando diretamente na estrutura e atribuindo um novo perfil a tal comunidade ...

Effect of housing and environmental enrichment on adrenocortical activity, behavior and reproductive cyclicity in the female tigrina (Leopardus tigrinus) and margay (Leopardus wiedii)

Zoo Biology, 2007
AbstractThe objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of different captive housing conditions on reproductive cyclicity and adrenocortical activity in adult females of two small‐sized felid species, the tigrina (Leopardus tigrinus; n = 3) and margay (Leopardus wiedii; n = 2).

COMPARISON BETWEEN DEXMEDETOMIDINE–S-KETAMINE AND MIDAZOLAM–S-KETAMINE IN IMMOBILIZATION OF ONCILLA (LEOPARDUS TIGRINUS)

Journal of Zoo and Wildlife Medicine, 2016
Established immobilization protocols are required for safe procedures on wildlife and zoo animals. This study evaluated the cardiovascular, respiratory, and anesthetic effects of dexmedetomidine (40 μg/kg) with S-ketamine (5 mg/kg) and midazolam (0.5 mg/kg) with S-ketamine (5 mg/kg) in 12 specimens of oncilla (Leopardus tigrinus) at Quinzinho de Barros

Ecological niche modeling of the Leopardus tigrinus complex sheds light on its elusive evolutionary history

Journal of Mammalogy
Abstract The evolutionary history and taxonomy of the Leopardus tigrinus species complex have been studied based on several approaches, mostly employing genetic and morphological data, leading to distinct classification schemes. We approached this problem from an ecological perspective, with 2 main goals: (i) to evaluate ecological niche
