Abstract Male bat-eared foxes, Otocyon megalotis, are known to contribute extensively to parental care. Yet, the exact roles that males and females play in raising offspring remain relatively unexplored. Here, we describe interactions between adult foxes and their presumed offspring based on a pilot study on 3 family groups of a wild population in South Africa. We report the first recorded instance of dung provisioning 1 observed in canids. A male bat-eared fox provided dung to his offspring during a foraging trip, presumably to give them access to the ensconced insects. Further, this male provisioned the young foxes with large, live insects.

  • Anatomy of the Abdominal Aorta in the Hoary Fox (Lycalopex Vetulus, Lund, 1842)
    1 Anatomy of the abdominal aorta in the hoary fox (Lycalopex vetulus, Lund, 1842) Anatomia da aorta abdominal em raposa-do-campo (Lycalopex vetulus, Lund, 1842) Dara Rúbia Souza SILVA1; Mônica Duarte da SILVA1; Marcos Paulo Batista de ASSUNÇÃO1; Eduardo Paul CHACUR1; Daniela Cristina de Oliveira SILVA2; Roseâmely Angélica de Carvalho BARROS1; Zenon SILVA1 1 Universidade Federal de Goiás, Regional Catalão, Instituto de Biotecnologia, Departamento de Ciências Biológicas, Catalão – GO, Brazil 2 Universidade Federal de Uberlândia, Instituto de Ciências Biomédicas, Departamento de Anatomia Humana, Uberlândia – MG, Brazil Abstract The hoary fox (Lycalopex vetulus, Lund, 1842) is the smallest Brazilian canid, whose weight varies between 2 and 4 kg, has a slender body, a small head, and a short and blackened snout. Despite being considered an endemic species, little is known about the hoary fox as it is one of the seven less studied canids in the world. Thus, this study aimed to describe the anatomy of the abdominal aorta artery of the hoary fox and to compare it with the pre-established literature data in domestic canids. For this purpose, we used two adult hoary foxes without definite age. We collected the corpses of these animals along roadsides of Catalão-GO, being later fixed and conserved in a 10% formalin solution. The results showed that the abdominal aorta in hoary fox is at the ventral face of the lumbar region vertebral bodies, being slightly displaced to the left of the median plane. The first branch is visceral, named celiac artery, followed by a paired parietal branch: the phrenic abdominal arteries.

Whether breeding and reintroducing endangered species; rescuing, rehabilitating, and releasing sick and injured animals; maintaining far-reaching educational and outreach programs; or supporting and conducting in-situ and ex-situ research and field conservation projects, accredited zoos and aquariums play a vital role in maintaining our planet’s diverse wildlife and natural habitats while engaging the public to appreciate and participate in conservation. The 2012 Annual Report on Conservation Science (ARCS) focuses exclusively on those conservation projects that have a direct impact on animals in the wild. The report is based on survey data submitted by 179 of AZA’s 223 accredited zoos and aquariums and 15 certified- related facilities. Each of the more than 2,700 project submissions listed in this report were reviewed by at least one member of AZA’s Field Conservation Committee (FCC) to ensure that the project met the criteria of having a direct impact on animals in the wild.

  • A Review of Selected Features of the Family Canidae with Reference to Its Fundamental Taxonomic Status Barnabas Pendragon
    Papers A review of selected features of the family Canidae with reference to its fundamental taxonomic status Barnabas Pendragon Dogs comprise 35 extant species in 14 genera. They belong to the order Carnivora, which has common morphological and karyotypic features. Within the order, member species can be grouped based on heterologous DNA melting temperatures. The family Canidae forms such a group. Selected features of the Canidae are reviewed here in order to examine the fundamental taxonomic status of this family. Hybrid relationships demonstrate that the family Canidae is a single, reproductively compatible group having the taxonomic status of basic type. As opposed to the various species in the family whose formation was accompanied by genetic change, establishment of the domestic dog was accompanied by almost no genetic change; genetically all domestic dogs are grey wolves. The remarkable variation observed among the various breeds of domestic dog reflects the potential for morphological change hard-wired into the canid genome. The basic type appears to be divided into two subfamilies in the Cenozoic strata; the extant Caninae and the extinct Borophaginae. The ‘oldest’ known canid species is Prohesperocyon, which is found in upper Eocene fossil deposits. Q*HRUJH9HVWD0LVVRXULODZ\HUJDYHXVWKHDGDJH for slicing muscle tissue.
