Resumen
Food habits of jaguarundi (Puma yagouaroundi) (Geoffroy, 1803) (Carnivora, Felidae) were studied between November 2000 and November 2001, in a 24.9 km2 area of secondary Atlantic Rainforest and eucalypt plantation, in the Serra de Paranapiacaba, São Paulo State, Brazil. Analyses of 26 fecal and regurgitate samples, obtained over a stretch of 570.1 km, showed the consumption of 19 prey items and 74 prey occurrences. Small mammals were the most frequent food item (42.5%), followed by birds (21%), reptiles (14%) and medium-sized mammals (3%). The percent occurrence (PO) suggests that the diet consisted mainly of small rodents (30%) and birds (21%). We recorded for the first time the predation of Viperidae snakes by P. yagouaroundi. Although having a large list of items and range of dietary niche breadths (Bsta = 0.76), our data show that jaguarundi prey mainly on small vertebrates (mammals, birds or reptiles), and even in tall tropical forests or eucalypt plantations, it preys mostly on animals that come to, or live on, the ground. 69 3 871 877 Ayres, M., Ayres-Junior, M., Ayres, D.L., Santos, A.A.S., (2003) BioEstat: aplicações estatísticas nas áreas das ciências biomédicas, p. 292. , Belém: Sociedade Civil Mamirauá Bisbal, F.J., Food habits of some Neotropical carnivores in Venezuela (Mammalia, Carnivora) (1986), 50 (3), pp. 329-339Cabrera, A., Yeppes, J., (1940) Mamíferos Sud-Americanos (Vida, Costumbres y Description), p. 370. , Buenos Aires: Historia natural Ediar, Compañía Argentina de Editores Colwell, R.K., Futuyma, D.J., On the Measurement of Niche Breadth and Overlap (1971) Ecology, 52 (4), pp. 567-576 Crooks, K.R., Soulé, M.E., Mesopredator release and avifaunal extinctions in a fragmented system (1999) Nature, 400, pp. 563-566 Eisenberg, J.F., Redford, K.H., (1999) Mammals of the neotropics: The central neotropics, 3, p. 609. , Chicago: The University of Chicago Press Emmons, L.H., Comparative feeding ecology of felids in a neotropical rainforest (1987) Behavioral Ecology and Sociobiology, 20 (4), pp. 271-283 Emmons, L.H., Feer, F., (1997) Neotropical Rainforest mammals: a field guide, p. 307. , 2 ed.
