Researcher of the CONICET at the Instituto de Biologia Subtropical of the Universidad Nacional de Misiones, Argentina. Since 2001, I am working in research and conservation projects related with jaguars and other felids. My main work is focused on the Atlantic Forest of Argentina, Brazil and Paraguay, but more recently, I started to work in other regions as the Iberá marshlands and Chaco region. I have used different approaches to study these felids like camera traps, satellite collars, and molecular technics in combination with population, habitat suitability and connectivity models. The information obtained from these projects is used to develop conservation strategies to conserve these species.
