Landscape valuation based on the ecological requirements of ‘<i>Tayassu pecari</i> ‘ and ‘<i>Tapirus terrestris</i>’ – a forest with araucaria, in Paraná state, Brazil

Abstract: This study valuated the landscape of Lageado Grande farm (LGF), an area of 3,136.32 ha, located in General Carneiro, Palmas, and Bituruna, Paraná state, Brazil. The evaluation was based on an integral analysis of the ecological requirements of Tayassu pecari and Tapirus terrestris and the functional aspects of the LGF landscape. Land use and land cover were mapped, and the map was divided into 335 grids of 10 ha each, which were scored with pre-defined criteria. The scores of each aspect were integrated by mul… Show more

“…The T. terrestris was positively influenced by the environmental variables tested, except the DW, which had a negative influence. This species is known to be highly dependent on aquatic environments for regulation of the intestinal tract, thermoregulation, elimination of ectoparasites, and as shelter against predators [73,74]. In this study we observed a preference for regeneration areas, probably due to high abundance of food resources in these areas.…”

“…No passado, os pinhões serviram de alimentação para os grupos indígenas que habitaram o sul do Brasil e ainda hoje são muito consumidos durante o outono e inverno, principalmente nas festas juninas da região (Figueiredo Filho et al, 2011). Além disso, o pinhão é o alimento mais importante durante o inverno para os animais que habitam a Floresta com Araucária, sendo excelente fonte de energia (Paise & Vieira, 2005;Vidolin et al, 2011).…”
