Photographic documentation of melanism in bobcats (Lynx rufus) in the Greater Everglades [PDF]

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 1, January 2024.
We report the rare observations of melanistic bobcats in their natural environment within the Greater Everglades Ecosystem. We also discuss the factors that could support melanistic phenotypes within this subtropical environment. Abstract We document the presence of bobcats (Lynx rufus) that demonstrate melanism in the Greater Everglades.

Cytogenetic analyses of ocelot (Leopardus pardalis) and tigrinus (Leopardus tigrinus) oocytes collected after ovarian stimulation

Brazilian Journal of Veterinary Research and Animal Science, 2009
Este estudo representa a primeira avaliação da maturação nuclear de oócitos por análise citogenética realizada em duas espécies de felídeos brasileiros ameaçados de extinção: L. pardalis (n=5) e L. tigrinus (n=4). Os animais foram submetidos à estimulação ovariana alternada com eCG-hCG e pFSH-pLH a cada quatro meses pelo período de dois anos ...

Population density and genetic diversity are positively correlated in wild felids globally

Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 32, Issue 10, Page 1858-1869, October 2023., 2023
Abstract Aim Insights into the biological and evolutionary traits of species, and their ability to cope with global changes, can be gained by studying genetic diversity within species. A cornerstone hypothesis in evolutionary and conservation biology suggests that genetic diversity decreases with decreasing population size, however, population size is ...

Mesopredators in forest edges 森林边缘地带的中级捕食者

Wildlife Letters, Volume 1, Issue 3, Page 107-118, September 2023., 2023
A key Asian mesopredator (leopards cats) is positively associated with forest edges and oil palm plantations. Abstract Fragments and edges account for most remaining forest habitats globally. Apex predators and megaherbivores often decline in these degraded habitats while smaller generalist omnivores can persist or thrive in forest edges, especially if

Understanding carnivore interactions in a cold arid trans‐Himalayan landscape: What drives co‐existence patterns within predator guild along varying resource gradients?

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 5, May 2023., 2023
The study looks at the competitive dynamics of the red fox, a native mesopredator, and free‐ranging dog, an introduced mesopredator, as well as their interactions with the region's top carnivores, the snow leopard and the Himalayan wolf, in northern India's trans‐Himalayan landscape.
