The assessment of size in fossil felidae
Las estimaciones de la talla corporal en vertebrados fósiles depende de las relaciones establecidas entre el peso corporal, la longitud total o alguna medida de estatura tomada de los elementos esqueléticos de animales actuales emparentados o muy afines.

Una revisión preliminar del estatus de conocimiento de los félidos argentinos [PDF]
En Argentina ocurren 10 especies de félidos silvestres (el 28% del total mundial). A pesar de que el Grupo de Especialistas en Félidos de la UICN ha clasificado como bueno el estado de conservación de los felinos argentinos, esta categorización utilizó ...

From shadows to data: first robust population assessment of snow leopards in Pakistan
The snow leopard Panthera uncia is a flagship species of the greater Himalayan region and symbolizes the integrity of this ecological system. Within the greater Himalayas, Pakistan holds special significance as the north of the country represents a confluence of three major mountain ranges (Hindu Kush, Pamir–Karakoram, and Himalaya).

Jaguar (Panthera onca) in the State of Mexico [PDF]
We document the jaguar (Panthera onca) in the Sierra Nanchititla (state of Mexico) in pine-oak forest. During October 2002–December 2004, we determined presence of jaguars using three methods: we conducted interviews in local communities, collected scats, and installed automated-camera detection systems.

Tropical forests are rapidly declining. One promising strategy to reverse the loss of tropical forest is the establishment of agroforestry on open land. We combined interviews with biodiversity surveys to learn general lessons from success and nonsuccess stories of the establishment of open‐land‐derived coffee agroforests in one of the world's ...

In the sea, the most common predators of adult sea turtles are sharks (i.e., Carcharhinus leucas, Carcharodon carcharias, Galeocerdo cuvier) (Witzell 1987, Cliff & Dudley 1991, Fergusson et al. 2000) and killer whales (Orcinus orca) (Fertl & Fulling 2007)

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

Abstract Measuring area‐based conservation outcomes in tropical forests is challenging due to cryptic human disturbances (e.g., hunting). As a result, comparative studies of management strategies providing quantitative outcomes remain scarce, especially in the Neotropics.

Nomes populares conferidos à Panthera onca (Linnaeus, 1758) (Mammalia, Carnivora, Felidae) no Brasil
Pero Lopes de Souza, in 1531, was the first to give to the Panthera onca of Brazil the name onça, a designation until then conferred to the Old World leopard (Panthera pardus (Linnaeus, 1758)), a very similar species.
