Few felids have been recorded as being preyed upon by the boa constrictor snake (Boa constrictor). Documentation of predation on felids by reptiles is scarce, and natural predators of the adult jaguarundi (Puma yagouaroundi) are poorly known.

Anatomia macroscópica dos órgãos reprodutores do Puma yagouaroundi (Geoffroy, 1803) macho [PDF]
The Puma yagouaroundi (cat-Moorish) is a feline that has wide geographic distribution in Brazil, can be found in various biomes. In the literature there has been few studies on their gross anatomy. The objective was the macroscopic description of the male reproductive system in order to obtain information that might be useful to reproductive management

Molecular detection of Brucella abortus in wild and captive felids [PDF]
Purpose: Brucellosis is a zoonotic disease of great public health importance. In wild animals, Brucella abortus is one of the most diagnosed species, mainly in enzootic environments where domestic animals share the same environment. B.

The Role of Somatic Cell Synchronization in Nuclear Transfer and Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells for Wild Felids. [PDF]
Cell cycle and cells subjected to synchronization in G0/G1. ABSTRACT Human interference reduces wild felid populations. Somatic cell nuclear transfer and the use of induced pluripotent stem cells are potential conservation strategies. To improve the efficiency of these strategies, it is essential to establish adequate protocols for the synchronization ...

Diversity and Activity Patterns of Medium-Sized and Large Terrestrial Mammals in Agroforests of a Peruvian Amazon Rainforest Region. [PDF]
We studied species richness and activity patterns of medium‐sized and large terrestrial mammals in agroforests located in the northern buffer zone of Tambopata National Reserve, Peru. The agroforests harboured a high number of mammal species, with species richness increasing alongside greater structural complexity of vegetation.

Use of species' responses to cryptic anthropogenic disturbances for monitoring biodiversity outcomes in tropical forests. [PDF]
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.
