White-lipped peccaries are recognized for their strong social bonds and, during their naps, they sleep in close proximity to each other. Foto leonardoAvelinoDuarte @MNeotropical @Biotropica @MammalMeetings @neotrop_mammals @ProTapir @Biofaces1
Our Biotropica pub "A predominantly diurnal tropical mammal increases nocturnality in response to high temperatures," made the 1rst volume of Scientific American 2024!!

Two ungulates together!! Temporal overlap at a water source!. Collared peccary and Tapir. Pantanal highlands, Brazil @MNeotropical @neotrop_mammals @wildlifesociety
This study is the first to clearly show a change in the overall temporal activity patterns of white-lipped peccaries in response to temperature. @Biotropica
Our first paper @Mammalogists indicated that wlp reduced activity as temperatures increased. @neotrop_mammals @MNeotropical

YOU CAN WATCH ONLINE! Proud of my partners and this amazing accomplishment! 8 years of #tayassupecari home ranges in various rural landscape scenarios. @MNeotropical @OshimaJulia @Unesp_Oficial @VanderbiltU @malu_jorge @TropicalBiology

just remember: all creatures great or small, the planet needs them all!

Whitelippedpeccaries enter a town, and we are very proud of the residents' behavior of @BodoquenaMSofc, who kept calm and maintained their distance. The herd went back into the forest peacefully, and no one was harmed.

Do you know that white-lipped peccaries represent the largest mammalian biomass in neotropical forests?. That's because their unit is not 1 individual - it's a united herd- that can reach more than 100 individuals. @MNeotropical @neotrop_mammals @Mammalogists @Biotropica

92% of all land- & resource-related murders in Brazil between 1985 and 2018 — some 1,790 in total, most of them in the Amazon — resulted in no arrest or trial.

#TBT. It is not enough to have a forest fragment without habitat diversity. Many frugivores such as #whitelippedpeccary depend on habitats that represent a very small percent and is essential for survival. @SCMas2 @ZSLScience @IMammalogy @Mammalogists @neotrop_mammals

I am feeling honored to give this interview about my master's project, especially in the journal of my former university 😍🎉.
Thank you, @jornalunesp, for this opportunity and for sharing my thoughts and concerns with the general public.
