“…Cabe destacar que aunque estas especies se colocaron dentro de un mismo gremio, como carnívoros, cada especie utiliza diferentes recursos, por ejemplo, L. wiedii consume presas de tamaño pequeño principalmente arborícolas (<100 g) mientras que L. pardalis consume las de sotobosque, de tamaño pequeño pero también incluye de hasta 10 kg (de Oliveira 1998;de Oliveira et al 2010). La presencia y la co-existencia de estos depredadores depende de una base adecuada de presas de distintos tamaños (López-González y Miller 2002;Silva-Pereira et al 2011). Información preliminar sobre la abundancia de estos depredadores indica que es similar a lo documentado en otras zonas conservadas (Pérez-Irineo y Santos Moreno sometido).…”

The region of Los Chimalapas, in the southeastern Mexico has a high biodiversity, but it faces problems of habitat loss, primarily by livestock and agricultural activities. A group that can provide data on these changes is that of the mammals of the order Carnivora, because its members have a variety of size classes, trophic guild or ecological function and respond differently to changes in habitat. This study characterizes the species richness and composition of trophic guilds of the assemblage of the order Carnivora, 29 trapping stations with phototraps were established within the rainforest, from March 2011 to June 2013. There was a collection effort of 8,529 days-trap and it were obtained 543 photographic records of 10 species of the order Carnivora, as well as two additional species recorded by direct observation, so the assemblage was composed of 12 species. Trophic guilds were five: carnivore (5 species), omnivore (4), insectivore (1), frugivorous (1), and the consumer aquatic species (1). The assemblage consist of two species of large size predators, three mesopredators, one species that is considered indicative of good water quality (Lontra longicaudis), and three generalist species (Urocyon cinereoargenteus, Puma yagouaroundi, and Procyon lotor), that prefer open areas and that are adapted to zones with disturbance, but with low abundance in the area. Also, 66% of species are in any risk category according to Mexican laws, confirming the importance of the Los Chimalapas for the conservation of Carnivora.

“…The records reported in this work on the presence of black bear add to those for other carnivorous species in the region reported over the past 10 years, including ocelot (Leopardus pardalis), margay (Leopardus wiedii), and jaguarundi (Herpailurus yagouaroundi) in Guanajuato (Iglesias et al 2008;Charre-Medellín et al 2012). In the State of Hidalgo, the presence of tayra (Eira barbara) and jaguar (Panthera onca) was recently reported (Aguilar-López et al 2015;Morales-García et al 2014). These findings highlight the importance of the region as a priority for the conservation of large mammals.…”

Additional records of black bear (Ursus americanus) in central-eastern México

El oso negro (Ursus americanus) redujo significativamente su área de distribución en México en el siglo XX. En los últimos años, sin embargo, hay evidencia de su presencia en áreas fuera del rango de distribución propuesto. El objetivo es documentar un conjunto de registros nuevos de oso negro para los estados de Guanajuato, Querétaro y San Luis Potosí en el centro-este de México. Se detectaron osos negros como resultado de acciones de monitoreo que incluyeron cámaras trampa, avistamientos y observación indirecta (huellas y eventos de depredación), realizados entre los años 2000 y 2019. Detectamos la presencia de oso negro a través de seis registros en los estados de Guanajuato, Querétaro y San Luis Potosí, en un área cercana a la distribución más sureña para esta especie en el Continente Americano. Cinco de las observaciones ocurrieron dentro de áreas naturales protegidas. Las observaciones aumentan el número de especies de mamíferos registrados en el estado de Guanajuato a 95 y confirman la presencia del oso negro en los estados de Querétaro y San Luis Potosí. Las observaciones proveen evidencia que respalda la hipótesis de que las poblaciones de oso negro del noreste de México se mueven hacia el centro-este de México a través de la Sierra Madre Oriental (SMO). La presencia de oso negro en el centro-este de México señala la necesidad de intensificar el monitoreo sistemático de la biodiversidad en la SMO y en áreas protegidas de la región a través de programas de monitoreo y conservación.

“…Originally, this predator was widely distributed, from the arid mountains of the southwestern United States through Mexico, Central America, and South America to Argentina (Seymour, 1989). In Mexico, its modern distribution includes the Gulf of Mexico, from Tamaulipas to the Yucatan Peninsula in the Caribbean; the Pacific coast, from Sonora to Chiapas (Chávez-Tovar, Aranda, & Ceballos, 2006); and the Central Plains in the states of Morelos, Mexico, and Hidalgo (Aguilar-López, Ramos-Frías, Rojas-Martínez, & Cornejo-Latorre, 2015; Monroy-Vilchis, Sánchez, Aguilera-Reyes, Suárez, & Urios, 2008; Valenzuela-Galván, Castro-Campos, Servin, Martínez-Barona, & Martínez-Montes, 2015).…”

The jaguar (Panthera onca) is one of the most endangered felids in the world. Its distribution has been reduced by 50% globally, and the species continues to be hunted illegally. We provide data on jaguar abundance, sex ratio, seasonal and daily activity, and site fidelity in La Papalota-a 368-ha natural protected area in Nayarit, western Mexico. La Papalota is located between two areas with high priority for the conservation of the jaguar: Marismas Nacionales Biosphere Reserve and the San Blas-San Juan area. Over a period of 4,240 trap nights (14 months), we collected 130 independent photos of six different individuals (one adult male, three adult females, one subadult female, and one cub). Jaguars use La Papalota all year round, and we were able to document three pregnancies. We suggest that, although a small protected area like our study site cannot provide an entire home range for even a single jaguar, it and similar reserves can play a crucial role as stepping-stones for jaguars moving across highly modified landscapes.
