“…Em cativeiro estes animais recebem como alimentação uma ração diária semelhante ao dos gatos domésticos e furões. Eles possuem hábitos noturnos, podendo às vezes, ser ativo durante o dia (Labate et al 2001, Rodrigues et al 2007, Bellatine et al 2010, tornando-se veiculadores de zoonoses tais como o vírus da CDV canina (cinomose) (Machida 1993) e Coxiella burnetii (Ejercito et al 1993).…”

Foram utilizados três animais, sendo um proveniente da Universidade de São Paulo e dois encaminhados pelo IBAMA (Proc. 02027.000.286/2004-92), excedente populacional de zoológico. Os aparelhos reprodutores masculinos "ex situ" foram fixados por imersão e dissecados. Foram retirados fragmentos de cada órgão e glândula anexa do aparelho reprodutor, os quais foram processados e incluídos pelas técnicas de inclusão em paraplast. Cada bloco foi cortado e os cortes foram corados por HE, picrosírius, reação de PAS com fundo de hematoxilina e tricromo de masson para a observação das estruturas ao microscópio óptico. Macroscopicamente, a região inguinal era composta pela uretra, músculo isquiocavernoso, músculos bulboesponjoso e bulbo cavernoso, músculo retrator do pênis, um par de testículos e o osso peniano ou báculo e ânus. A glande do pênis apresentou uma dilatação proximal (bulbo da glande) constituída pela parte dilatada do báculo. A posição dos testículos, dentro do escroto, era horizontal. A próstata apresentou-se com formato globoso, circundando a uretra. Microscopicamente, os testículos eram envoltos por uma cápsula de tecido conjuntivo denso, a túnica albugínea testicular. O ducto epididimário era provido de um epitélio pseudoestratificado com estereocílios. A uretra peniana apresentou-se circundada pelo corpo esponjoso e no restante do pênis apresentou o corpo cavernoso (tecido erétil). Os resultados macro e microscópicos encontrados até o momento são semelhantes aos achados no Canis familiaris (cão doméstico).

“…Little research has been conducted on the reproductive characteristics of coati (Nasua nasua) Lima et al, 2009); there are a few reports limited to the Procyonidae family (Beisiegel, 2001;Labate et al, 2001;Indrusiak et al, 2003;Franciolli et al, 2007).…”

Semen samples (n=105) were collected through eletroejaculation from six adult male coatis (Nasua nasua) between January 2007 and December 2008 at Universidade Federal de Mato Grosso Zoo, Cuiabá, Brazil. Mean values were: volume (mL); concentration (sperm/mL); total motility (%); progressive sperm motility (scale, 0-5); live spermatozoa (%); acrossome integrity (%); primary defects (%); and secondary defects (%). There was high correlation between total motility and live sperm; total motility and progressive sperm motility; total motility and acrossome integrity; live sperm and progressive motility; live sperm and acrossome integrity and volume and concentration. The method for semen collection was considered safe and efficient. It can be used for the evaluation of breeding potential of coati in captivity and for the establishment of new assisted reproductive technology (ART) for threatened neotropical carnivores species.Keywords: Procyonidae, semen, eletroejaculation, reproduction RESUMO Amostras de sêmen (n=105) foram coletadas por eletroejaculação em seis coatis (Nasua nasua) machos adultos entre Janeiro de 2007 a Dezembro de 2008 no Zoológico da Universidade Federal de

“…In captivity, procyonids can inflict serious wounds on animal husbandry personnel using their claws and teeth if they are stressed or feel pain during handling (Labate et al 2001). Hence, physical restraint of procyonids is unsafe, requiring the use of chemical immobilization to perform routine (e.g., physical examination, vaccination) or emergency procedures (e.g., medical treatment) (Labate et al 2001; Association of Zoos and Aquariums Small Carnivore Taxon Advisory Group 2010).…”

“…Their diet is mainly composed of flowers and nectar but also includes leaves, fruits, insects, bird eggs, and small vertebrates (Monterrubio-Rico et al 2013). Currently, it is included in the Least Concern (LC) category of the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species (Kays et al 2008).In captivity, procyonids can inflict serious wounds on animal husbandry personnel using their claws and teeth if they are stressed or feel pain during handling (Labate et al 2001 (Fournier et al 1998).The aim of this study was to assess the efficiency of a combination of ketamine, xylazine and midazolam for the immobilization of captive Kinkajous and to describe its anaesthetic and cardiorespiratory effects. …”

OPEN ACCESSAbstract: Detailed information on the anaesthetic and cardiorespiratory effects of drug combinations used for the chemical immobilization of Kinkajous (Potos flavus) is scarce. This study assessed the effects of ketamine (2.5mg/kg), xylazine (1mg/kg) and midazolam (0.5mg/kg) combination in P. flavus. Five clinically healthy adult Kinkajous of both sexes were included. Heart rate, respiratory rate, oxygen saturation, blood pressure and body temperature were recorded at five-minute intervals for 25 minutes. Then, animals received 0.125mg/kg of yohimbine by intramuscular injection. Anaesthetic depth was assessed based on stimulus response and muscle tone. Induction, immobilization, and recovery periods were recorded and qu...
