Abstract We report 24 records of giant armadillo roadkill on Brazilian highways in the Cerrado, Pantanal and Amazon biomes illustrating that are a threat to this species. However, we also documented species using underpasses, demonstrating these structures could help reduce risk for armadillos. Portuguese is available with online material
Faunal mortality from roadkill has a negative impact on global biodiversity, and bats are among the roadkilled animals. In South America, Atlantic Forest covers southeastern Brazil, region which sustains large bat diversity. this biome, Sooretama reserves crossed by federal highway BR-101, one of busiest in Brazil. We analyzed along 25 km stretch that crosses reserves. Data were collected between years 2010 2015. total, 773 individuals distributed 47 species during period. The insectivorous...
Highways limit the movement and dispersion of wild animals contribute to their loss due roadkills, leading isolation decline populations, increasing risk local extinction. The Lowland Tapir Tapirus terrestris is largest neotropical herbivore-frugivore, despite its wide distribution in South America it threatened with In this study we report six roadkill events tapirs between 2014 2019 a section federal highway crossing mosaic Atlantic Forest reserves called Sooretama, one last tapir refuges...
O DNA barcoding (código de barras DNA) é uma técnica muito utilizada em estudos genéticos com animais que utiliza iniciadores universais para amplificar região específica do mitocondrial. Esta propicia a identificação espécies são encontradas danificadas, cuja morfológica praticamente impossível, principalmente pequeno porte. presente trabalho utilizou o 33 amostras morcegos atropeladas na Reserva Biológica Sooretama-ES, tem um grande impacto, devido aos atropelamento causado pelo constante...
