Abstract Bush dogs are considered one of the lesser-known canids of South America. We report an update on their distribution in the north region of Brazil. Three bush dogs were filmed by a camera trap in Amapá Na- tional Forest, Eastern Brazilian Amazonia. The record occurred during data collection for a long-term study of medium and large vertebrates. On 28 March 2014 at 22:13h, three bush dogs passed in front of the camera. This record increases knowledge on the distribution of the species. Despite its large geographic range, bush dogs Speothos venaticus areas, bush dogs are mostly associated with well preserved areas (Lund, 1842) have been proven to be extremely difficult to locate in (Oliveira 2009) or in large forest fragments (Carretero-Pinzón 2013), the wild (DeMatteo and Loiselle 2008, DeMatteo et al.

  • Maned Wolves Are Found in the Grasslands of South America! They Use Their Long Legs and Large Ears to Hunt for Small Prey Like Rodents and Birds on the Grasslands
    Maned Wolves are found in the grasslands of South America! They use their long legs and large ears to hunt for small prey like rodents and birds on the grasslands. Despite their name they are not actually wolves, they are most closely related to another South American species, the Bush Dog! Communicate with Smells Maned Wolves, spend most of their lives alone, so to com- municate they will leave a scent similar to a skunk to tell other wolves they are in the area. They will also roar-bark. Fruit Eating Carnivores Maned Wolves, unlike most other members of the dog family, are omnivores! Up to 70% of their diet is plants! One of their favorite foods is the loberia, also called the “fruit of the wolf” or wolf apple! The Little Rock Zoo works with the Maned Wolf Species Survival Plan, which helps to protect this amazing species in zoos and in the wild! Want to Learn more? Check out these links and activities!

Biota Neotrop. 11(3): http://www.biotaneotropica.org.br/v11n3/en/abstract?in ventory+bn00911032011 Abstract: We report the results of a short expedition to the remote headwaters of the River Rewa, a tributary of the River Essequibo in the Rupununi, Southern Guyana. We used a combination of camera trapping, mist netting and spot count surveys to document the mammalian and avian diversity found in the region. We recorded a total of 33 mammal species including all 8 of Guyana’s monkey species as well as threatened species such as lowland tapir (Tapirus terrestris), giant otter (Pteronura brasiliensis) and bush dog (Speothos venaticus). We recorded a minimum population size of 35 giant otters in five packs along the 95 km of river surveyed. In total we observed 193 bird species from 47 families. With the inclusion of Smithsonian Institution data from 2006, the bird species list for the Rewa Head rises to 250 from 54 families. These include 10 Guiana Shield endemics and two species recorded as rare throughout their ranges: the harpy eagle (Harpia harpyja) and crested eagle (Morphnus guianensis).
