Several mammal inventories have been reported from the lowland Amazon of Madre de Dios, Peru, but few for Las Piedras River. Here we present a list species Over period seven years (2013–2020), recorded presence species, excluding bats and small rodents, using camera traps opportunistic sightings. Our study area was near Huascar-Las River confluence, 58 km north Dios covering an 22,430 ha. We 60 belonging to orders, 26 families, 53 genera, including novel records...
Although behavior of E. murinus was broadly described over a century ago, observations predation by are rare. Some evidence suggests that it may target sites when hunting. We report details six livestock depredation events at single locality near Puerto Maldonado, Peru. Additionally, we compare positions three radio-tagged snakes with known locations mineral licks in their home ranges and describe the relationship individual game trails. Our licks, association individuals them, suggest...
Abstract One of the main threats to wild primates is habitat alteration, fragmentation and destruction. Therefore it crucial understand ability those species adapt human-induced changes prevent extirpation. Key this a diet plasticity. In Paraguay over 91% Upper Paraná Atlantic Forest has been destroyed expand agricultural land. We determined composition three Sapajus cay groups in degraded near-pristine eastern assess whether with degradation. accounted for variability associated demographic...
The majority of reports self-medication in capuchins focus on fur-rubbing behaviours (Fragaszy et al., 2004; Paukner & Suomi, 2012; Meuner 2008). Here, we report observations Hooded Capuchins Rancho Laguna Blanca (RLB), feeding the bark tree Albizia niopoides (Mimosaceae), a possible case self-medication.
Records of Galictis vittata (Greater Grison) from the Amazon basin are sparse, particularly in Madre de Dios region, where only three records have been published. This study elaborates on seven observations within and near small interior forest streams Las Piedras tributary Dios, Peru. While G. inhabits terrestrial environments, it has also observed association with aquatic habitats parts its range. Although limited to observations, all documented sightings region associated stream...
Abstract We describe an incident of a wild ocelot that attacked group people in Southeastern Peru. Based on recorded evidence and scientific literature, we hypothesize disease affecting the central nervous system or human‐induced trauma as possible explanations for this abnormal behavior.
