Resumen
In a study aiming to describe the diet of Micoureus paraguayanus in a southeastern Brazilian Cerrado (savannah-like) remnant, we found young didelphid remains in fecal samples from live-trapped adults. These findings uncovered either events of scavenging on dead young didelphids or infanticide adding to the knowledge on the dietary breadth and behavioral ecology of M. paraguayanus. © SAREM, 2010. 17 1 183 187 Astúa de Moraes, D., Santori, R.T., Finotti, R., Cerqueira, R., Nutritional and fibre contents of laboratory-established diets of Neotropical opossums (Didelphidae) (2003) Predators with Pouches: The Biology of Carnivorous Marsupials, pp. 229-237. , (M Jones, C Dickman, and M Archer, eds.).
