Occupancy patterns and niche partitioning within a diverse carnivore community exposed to anthropogenic pressures
Although carnivores are in global decline, diverse carnivore communities are common in
sub-Saharan Africa, where more than 20 species may co-occur. Though intraguild …

Differential impact of landscape transformation on pumas (Puma concolor) and jaguars (Panthera onca) in the Upper Paraná Atlantic Forest
C De Angelo, A Paviolo… - Diversity and Distributions, 2011 - Wiley Online Library
Aim Jaguars and pumas, being similar in size and behaviour, are the largest felids of the
Neotropics. However, pumas appear to be more resistant to human impacts. Our objective …
