Food habits of an insular Neotropical population of white-tailed deer

Applied Animal Behaviour Science, 1991
White-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) biology has been little studied in the tropics. In Costa Rica, a few studies have been done on this species. This report deals with the food habits of an insular population. The study was conducted on San Lucas Island, Puntarenas, Costa Rica, from August 1984 to July 1985.

Histomorphometric evaluation of the neotropical brown brocket deer Mazama gouazoubira testis, with an emphasis on cell population indexes of spermatogenic yield

Animal Reproduction Science, 2011
Information on the reproductive biology of neotropical cervids is scarce. Therefore, the aim of this study was to perform biometric, histologic and stereologic analyses of the brown brocket deer Mazama gouazoubira testis, with an emphasis on the intrinsic yield and the Sertoli cell index. Seven adult males kept in captivity were used.

White‐tailed deer as the last megafauna dispersing seeds in Neotropical dry forests: the role of fruit and seed traits

Biotropica, 2017
AbstractEndozoochory is a prominent form of seed dispersal in tropical dry forests. Most extant megafauna that perform such seed dispersal are ungulates, which can also be seed predators. White‐tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) is one of the last extant megafauna of Neotropical dry forests, but whether it serves as a legitimate seed disperser is ...

Forage use in domestic cattle (Bos indicus), capybara (Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris) and pampas deer (Ozotoceros bezoarticus) in a seasonal Neotropical wetland

Mammalian Biology, 2011
Abstract The impact of livestock grazing on native wildlife remains a topic for considerable debate. In the Brazilian Pantanal extensive cattle ranching has been practised since the mid-18th century and cattle live alongside a diverse group of medium to large sized terrestrial mammalian herbivores.

Archaeological Collagen Fingerprinting in the Neotropics; Protein Survival in 6000 Year Old Dwarf Deer Remains from Pedro González Island, Pearl Islands, Panama

2017
Archaeological faunal remains from the humid tropics have long been known to suffer from poor preservation which hinders biomolecular approaches to objective species identification and phylogenetic analysis using DNA. However, a new technique of collagen analysis by soft-ionization mass spectrometry offers a means to access such molecular information ...

Fractal Dimension and Suture Complexity During Postnatal Ontogeny in Neotropical Deer in Relation to Sexual Dimorphism and Other Biological Features

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution
ABSTRACTIn mammals, the increase in cranial suture complexity throughout postnatal ontogeny has been linked to mechanical forces that load on the skull, including compression forces from mastication and the presence and use of cranial appendages in ungulates.
