Global determinants of home range sizes in felids: Evidence of human disturbance impact. [PDF]

J Anim Ecol
This study is the first to demonstrate the influence of anthropogenic factors and species richness in felids on home range size across the entire felid taxon. Felids are a taxon of major interest in conservation biology, and gaining a comprehensive view of their spatial ecology will help derive global conservation recommendations.

Development of short-target primers for species identification in biological studies of Carnivora. [PDF]

Ecol Evol, 2023
Abstract Noninvasive genetic sampling greatly facilitates studies on the genetics, ecology, and conservation of threatened species. Species identification is often a prerequisite for noninvasive sampling‐based biological studies. Due to the low quantity and quality of genomic DNA from noninvasive samples, high‐performance short‐target PCR primers are ...

Novel Alpha-, Beta-, and Gammaherpesviruses in Neotropical Carnivores of Brazil. [PDF]

Transbound Emerg Dis
The knowledge regarding infectious agents affecting wildlife is crucial for species’ conservation. We hypothesized that herpesviruses are present in wild Neotropical carnivores. Herein, we used DNA polymerase and glycoprotein B broad‐spectrum PCRs to molecularly survey the presence of herpesviruses in spleen and/or lung samples of 53 wild Neotropical ...

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
