Big Cat Mortality in Subsistence Hunts in Amazonia 亚马孙雨林地区生计狩猎中的大型猫科动物致死情况研究
Wildlife Letters, EarlyView.We use data from a participatory biodiversity monitoring program to estimate the annual mortality of jaguars and pumas resulting from subsistence hunts in two Amazonian Extractive Reserves. We estimate that around 50 big cats are killed annually in the study area, which is consistent with an independent estimate for the same area and within the same ...
