“…The absence of the two armadillo species may be associated with the sampling methodologies used this study, as it is more common to record armadillos through their indirect records, such as burrows, than through footprints or direct observations (Scoss et al 2004). Besides the two armadillo species, we also expected to register the maned-wolf (Chryscyon brachyurus, Carnivora), as there are records of this species in fragments near to the region of SBSP (Prado et al 2008).…”

The aim of this study was to survey the species of large and medium-sized terrestrial mammals occurring at Serra do Brigadeiro State Park (SBSP). Data was compiled from two studies carried out in 2008. Data was collected through sand plots and camera traps. Thirteen species were recorded, one that had not been registered before (Leopardus wiedii) and one exotic (Canis lupus familiaris). Species richness estimate for camera trapping was 13.53±1.75. For the sand plots, estimate was lower (9±1.73 species). The low number of inventories focusing on large and medium-sized terrestrial mammals in the Mantiqueira region of the Atlantic forest and the presence of the domestic dogs within the Park limits emphasizes the need for monitoring programs to identify the major threats to preserved areas in the region.

“…The rural zone has many wild animal species, including vulnerable or threatened animals (RIBON et al, 2003;PRADO et al, 2008). The proximity of humans to protected areas has enabled the entrance of dogs that can chase, injure and kill wildlife animals (MARKS & DUNCAN, 2009).…”

Domestic dogs' skills such as hunting and herding shifted as man migrated from rural areas to developing urban centers and led to a change in human-dog relationship and in the purpose of these animals in the properties. The countryside of Viçosa is characterized by small coffee farms surrounded by RESUMO As habilidades dos cães domésticos como caçadores e pastores modifi caram com a mudança do homem das áreas rurais para os centros urbanos em desenvolvimento, levando para uma mudança nas relações humanos-cães e o propósito desses animais nas propriedades.

The aim of this study was to document the records of bat species collected at the Estação de Pesquisa Treinamento e Educação Ambiental (EPTEA) da Mata do Paraíso, a small fragment of Atlantic Rainforest of 200 ha in Viçosa, Minas Gerais, Brazil. Original data was obtained by capture sessions with mist nets from November 2007 to October 2008, and complemented with material from the collection database of Museu de Zoologia João Moojen, Universidade Federal de Viçosa. We found a total of 17 bat species distributed in five families at the EPTEA Mata do Paraíso.
