This study addresses the understudied predation ecology of Atelocynus microtis, a rare and Near Threatened Amazonian canid. We detail depredation events by the felid species, Panthera onca (Jaguar), observed in southeastern Peru in 2004. The observations were made during ongoing research, which includes radio-telemetry tracking and a reintroduction project. Given historical observed ecological overlaps, we also speculate that Puma concolor (Puma, Mountain Lion) could be a potential predator of A. microtis. Our findings expand the limited existing knowledge on the predators of A. microtis, suggesting a broader range of predators than previously identified. |
