Serologic Evidence of Nonfatal Rabies Exposure in a Free-ranging Oncilla (Leopardus tigrinus) in Cotapata National Park, Bolivia [PDF]
Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 2004 A clinically healthy free-ranging oncilla (Leopardus tigrinus) was live-trapped in Boliva in 2000. Based on serology, we concluded that this animal was exposed to feline panleukopenia virus, Toxoplasma gondii, and rabies virus. The rabies virus-neutralizing antibody titer (>70 IU/ml) in this oncilla was unusual for an asymptomatic animal exposed to ...

Diversity of medium and large neotropical mammals in an area of mixed rain forest
Acta Scientiarum: Biological Sciences, 2018 Medium and large mammals (> 1 kg) were studied using camera traps with active sensors in a Conservation Unit located in an area of Mixed Rain Forest or Araucaria Forest (Atlantic Forest at altitude) in the South of Brazil, as a method for investigating

Social media videos highlight the impacts of the illegal use of snares on Brazilian biodiversity
People and Nature, Volume 7, Issue 11, Page 2811-2820, November 2025.Abstract Snares are one of the most used types of non‐selective traps for hunting worldwide, though their use is prohibited in many countries, including Brazil. Indiscriminate and unmonitored use of snares can induce serious conservation problems, particularly in megadiverse countries where higher species richness and diversity mean that the ...

The Potential for Subordinate Predator Release in Terrestrial Mammalian Carnivore Assemblages
Mammal Review, Volume 55, Issue 4, October 2025.Results from the literature review showed that the potential for release is not strictly size‐based and could occur between pairs not usually considered ‘apex’ or ‘meso’ There was equal representation of felids and canids as dominant predators, but subordinate predators were more commonly canids. ABSTRACT Mesopredator release occurs when the decline of

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 11, November 2024.Feral cats (Felis catus) have spread across Australia over the past 200 years, displaying various coat types, yet it remains unknown if any offers an adaptive advantage. Using a dataset of 24,657 camera‐trap images, we examined if any coat types correlate with spatial or temporal features.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 8, Issue 19, Page 9779-9792, October 2018., 2018 Focusing on co‐occurring domestic and wild felids, we evaluate evidence of spillover and mechanisms of transmission for an erythrocytic bacterial parasite of cats. We undertake analyses of disease prevalence, transmission modeling, pathogen genotyping based on sequences of the bacterial 16S rRNA gene, and phylogenetic analysis with ancestral state ...
