Abstract: 510Pesq. Vet. Bras. 30(6):510-514, junho 2010 RESUMO.-[Intersexualidade em uma raposa (Cerdocyon thous).] A intersexualidade é uma das patologias reprodutivas, hereditária e/ou congênita, que têm sido mais reportada em animais selvagens nos últimos anos. Entretanto, suas ocorrências e conseqüências permanecem obscuras, sendo que todos os aspectos relacionados a este distúrbio reprodutivo merecem atenção.

“…Most C. thous investigations addresses their eating habits, parasitism, reproductive and behavioral physiology, using captive animals from zoos and reserves (Pimentel et al 2009, Mattos et al 2010, Mattoso et al 2012, Ferreira et al 2013. Some morphological studies were performed using wild animals died by natural deaths or car hitting (Barisson et al 2012, Souza Junior et al 2014, Souza Junior et al 2016) The description of the species' internal morphology demands animal euthanasia, which, by its vulnerability, can only be performed under license from the Brazilian Institute of Environment and Renewable Natural Resources -IBAMA.…”

“…Researchers recently reported 1 case of intersexuality in a wild crab-eating fox (Cerdocyon thous) based on the presence of uterus-and cervix-like muscular structures in an animal with an underdeveloped boned penis and absent prostate and gonads [Mattos et al, 2010]. Similarly, 5 cases identified as female pseudohermaphroditism were observed during a study of body composition in North American female black (Ursus americanus) and brown bears (Ursus arctos) [Cattet, 1988].…”
