Project wild cats of Brazil: contributions towards small cat conservation - a demographic, home range and distribution assessment for cat conservation in Brazil
2018  Conference Proceeding

The Neotropical Felidae are among the least known species of the family. There is an unfortunate lack of information regarding their demographic and natural history parameters as well as their status assessment, which are of critical importance in management and conservation action planning. Project Wild Cats of Brazil (PWCB) started in 2004 aiming to study all small cat species occurring in Brazil. In 2010, it became a research program. Its present actions concentrate on the ecology and conservation issues in all critical habitats of Brazil. The main sources of data for ecological studies are camera-trapping photographs.
