Natives Against Invaders: Shared Use of Space and Temporal Segregation of Clouded Tiger-Cats (<i>Leopardus pardinoides</i>) and Domestic Dogs (<i>Canis familiaris</i>) in an Isolated Protected Area. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe studied the spatial and temporal relationships between clouded tiger‐cats and dogs in an isolated protected area of Colombia. Dogs influenced the activity patterns of clouded tiger‐cats but not their habitat use. Conservation actions should be directed to mitigate potential contact between both species.
