Occurrence of Antibodies toToxoplasma gondiiandLepstospiraspp. in Manatees (Trichechus inunguis) of the Brazilian Amazon

open access: yesJournal of Zoo and Wildlife Medicine, 2012
The presence of Toxoplasma gondii and Leptospira spp. antibodies was investigated in 74 manatees (Trichechus inunguis [Mammalia: Sirenia]) kept in captivity in two rescue units in the northern region of Brazil. Antibodies to T gondii were detected in 29 (

Sleep in an Amazonian manatee,Trichechus inunguis

Experientia, 1992
For the first time, sleep was studied in a representative of the order of Sirenia. Slow wave sleep occupied 27%, and paradoxical sleep 1% of the total recording time in the Amazonian manatee. Trichechus inunguis. The circadian rhythmicity of sleep was pronounced.

Temperature Regulation in the Amazonian Manatee Trichechus inunguis

Physiological Zoology, 1983
The mean core temperatures (Tc) of two Amazonian manatees (Trichechus inunguis) were 35.6 ± 0.1 C (X ± SD) and 36.1 ± 0.2 C at ambient water temperatures (Tw = 27–29 C). Based on metabolic rate (MR), the lower critical water temperature (TLC) of the larger manatee was 22-23 C. Above TLC, Tc varied with Tw, but the animal maintained Tc below TLC.

Endocrine monitoring of the ovarian cycle in captive female Amazonian manatees (Trichechus inunguis)

Animal Reproduction Science, 2013
The Amazonian manatee (Trichechus inunguis; Mammalia: Sirenia), a threatened aquatic mammal endemic to the Amazon basin, is the only sirenian that lives exclusively in fresh water. Information about the reproductive endocrinology of the Amazonian manatee is scarce; therefore, the aim of this study was to monitor salivary progesterone and estradiol ...

Hypoxia and Hypercapnia in the Respiratory Control of the Amazonian Manatee (Trichechus inunguis)

Physiological Zoology, 1980
The steady-state responses to hypoxia and hypercapnia were studied in freely diving Amazonian manatees (Trichechus inunguis). Breathing room air, the manatees had an end-dive alveolar O₂ Of 60 mm Hg and an alveolar CO₂ of 71 mm Hg. Minute ventilation increased linearly with inspired CO₂ during the hypercapnic breathing and the animals maintained a ...
