Dissimilar responses of the Gray brocket deer (Mazama gouazoubira), Crab-eating fox (Cerdocyon thous) and Pampas fox (Lycalopex gymnocercus) to livestock frequency in subtropical forests of NW Argentina
(Elsevier Gmbh, 2015-08)
This study represents the first analysis of livestock influence over individual mammal species in NW Argentina forests. Through camera-trapping, I found a negative correlation between frequencies of occurrence of livestock ...

(Alliance Communications Group Division Allen Press, 2009-04)
Crab-eating foxes (Cerdocyon thous) and pampas foxes (Lycalopex gymnocercus) are very similar in body size and food habits, with distributional ranges that overlap extensively in South America. We used camera-trap records ...
Spatial organization of the Pampas fox in a grassland relict of central Argentina: A flexible system
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2012-06)

Lagochilascariosis is an emerging parasitic disease limited to the American continent, caused by nematodes of the genus Lagochilascaris. Its life cycle is heteroxenous, involving natural definitive hosts (wild carnivores), ...
Limited influence of hunting on the activity patterns and habitat use of Pampas fox (Lycalopex gymnocercus) in agroecosystems of central Argentina
(Elsevier Science, 2021-11)
The Pampas fox (Lycalopex gymnocercus) has suffered from hunting and human persecution for decades, both for fur trade or due to conflicts with livestock. However, studies assessing the effects of hunting pressure on this ...
