The effects of habitat fragmentation and deforestation are exacerbated by some elements, such as roads power lines, which may become filters or barriers to wildlife movements. In order mitigate mortality restore connectivity, passages being constructed linear corridors. installation these mitigation measures must be followed systematic monitoring, in evaluate their use effectiveness, assist management, convince stakeholders value. this paper we present the results a monitoring study rope...
Abstract Mammalian carnivores are considered a key group in maintaining ecological health and can indicate potential integrity landscapes where they occur. Carnivores also hold high conservation value their habitat requirements guide management plans. The order Carnivora has 84 species from 8 families the Neotropical region: Canidae; Felidae; Mephitidae; Mustelidae; Otariidae; Phocidae; Procyonidae; Ursidae. Herein, we include published unpublished data on native terrestrial (Canidae;...
Biological invasion is one of the main threats to native biodiversity. For a species become invasive, it must be voluntarily or involuntarily introduced by humans into nonnative habitat. Mammals were among first taxa worldwide for game, meat, and labor, yet number in Neotropics remains unknown. In this data set, we make available occurrence abundance on mammal that (1) transposed geographical barrier (2) Neotropics. Our set composed 73,738 historical current georeferenced records alien which...
Terrestrial mammals face a severe crisis of habitat loss worldwide. Therefore, assessing information on throughout different time periods is crucial for species’ conservation statuses based the IUCN Red List system. To support national extinction risk assessment in Brazil (2016–2022), we developed script that uses MapBiomas Project 6.0 data source land cover and use (annual maps at 30 m scale) within Google Earth Engine (GEE) platform to calculate loss. We defined suitable habitats from...
Human interventions in natural environments are the main cause of biodiversity loss worldwide. The situation is not different southern Brazil, home five primate species. Although some earlier studies exist, on primates this region began to be consistently carried out 1980s and have continued since then. In addition important initiatives study protect highly endangered Leontopithecus caissara Lorrini & Persson, 1990 Brachyteles arachnoides E. Geoffroy, 1806, other species, including...
Abstract Effective management of threatened species requires accurate population size estimation and monitoring. However, reliable estimates are lacking for many endangered species. The critically blond titi monkey ( Callicebus barbarabrownae ) is an endemic primate the Caatinga biome in Northeastern Brazil. A previous assessment based on presence‐only data estimated a minimum 260 mature individuals 2,636 km 2 , studies visual records suggested very low local relative abundance. this cryptic...
Abstract In 2019, a canopy bridge was built connecting two fragments of the Atlantic Forest separated by Pacatuba unpaved road within Pacatuba-Gargaú Corridor. This as part Brazilian National Action Plan for Conservation Northeastern Primates ( Plano de Ação Nacional para Conservação dos Primatas do Nordeste – PAN PRINE). The forest contain variety mammal species, including endangered primate species Alouatta belzebul and Sapajus flavius . Between September 2019 March 2020, we monitored...
Hunting is an ancient human behavior, which likely became complex and efficient gradually through time. We present data from a bibliographic survey (qualitative) field sampling (quantitative) of primate hunting in Northeastern Brazil. evaluated threats faced by 14 species native to the States Bahia Sergipe (three Critically Endangered, three Vulnerable, two Near Threatened, Least Concern). Qualitatively, since 2005, we identified 21 academic studies that contained 47 mentions all six studied...
