Scanning electron microscopy of the Canis aureus tongue identified four distinct papilla types filiform, conical, fungiform and circumvallate, serving mechanical and gustatory functions. The absence of foliate papillae alongside distinct conical morphology reflects evolutionary adaptations optimized for rapid mechanical food processing.

Ocelot management and conservation along transportation corridors in Southern Texas [PDF]
The ocelot (Leopardus pardalis) is an endangered cat with less than 120 individuals remaining in the United States. Ocelot roadkills are an important problem potentially threatening ocelot persistence in southern Texas.

Morphological description of the male reproductive system of the ocelot (Leopardus pardalis) [PDF]
Innumerable species of wild animals have not yet been described anatomically. The ocelot (Leopardus pardalis), a wild cat with ample geographic distribution, is an example of this.

Prey availability and temporal partitioning modulate felid coexistence in Neotropical forests.
Carnivores have long been used as model organisms to examine mechanisms that allow coexistence among ecologically similar species. Interactions between carnivores, including competition and predation, comprise important processes regulating local ...

Effects of human impacts on habitat use, activity patterns and ecological relationships among medium and small felids of the Atlantic Forest. [PDF]
Competition theory and niche theory suggest that two morphologically similar species may coexist by reducing the overlap of at least one dimension of their ecological niche.

Land Cover Trends in South Texas (1987–2050): Potential Implications for Wild Felids
The Rio Grande Delta and surrounding rangelands in Texas has become one of the fastest urbanizing regions in the United States over the last 35 years. We assessed how land cover trends contributed to the large-scale processes that have driven land cover ...
