The last relevant work that reviewed the biological and conservation aspects of Amazonian manatee (Trichechus inunguis) was published almost 30 years ago. In these three decades, scientific knowledge about species has advanced substantially. This review article updates various manatee, summarizing information present in literature. Topics such as morphology, habitat, distribution, population aspects, food feedings habits, reproduction, behavior, health, threats, status, efforts were...
ABSTRACT Although there are several studies on the skull of Amazonian manatees (Trichechus inunguis) to better understand anatomy, physiology, and behavior these animals, analysis brain has been often neglected. Typically, in osteological studies, is discarded preserve integrity skull. One main reasons for this neglect lack adequate dissection protocols allow extraction intact while preserving In study, we present a simple step-by-step protocol comprehensive procedure fixation manatee calves...
ABSTRACT Body length is an important parameter in morphological, ecological and behavioral studies of a species contributes to the understanding body condition individuals. This essential for conservation management strategies by informing evaluating growth rates, physical maturity classification individuals into age groups, promoting better accuracy biological parameters species. The aim this study was identify predictors Amazonian manatees (Trichechus inunguis) using metric characters...
