“…The gray brocket deer (Mazama gouazoubira) is a Latin-American cervid with a decreasing population trend, found in forests, savannas, shrubland, and wetlands (inland) in Brazil, Bolivia, Argentina, Paraguay, and Uruguay (Black-Decima and Vogliotti, 2016). There are few reports of neoplasms in this species (Lértora et al, 2014;Navas-Suárez et al, 2018;Wilson et al, 2021), with one single case of testicular germ cell neoplasm identified as a teratoma (Lértora et al, 2014). Herein we describe a case of seminoma in a cryptorchid wild-caught gray brocket deer, highlighting the anatomopathological aspects of this condition.…”

Cryptorchidism is the incomplete descent of the testes and associated structures, and cryptorchid testes are more likely to develop testicular neoplasms, such as seminoma. This is the first report of a seminoma in a cryptorchid wild-caught gray brocket deer (Mazama gouazoubira). The animal developed a unilateral seminoma with classical histopathological findings and benign behavior. Six months after the orchiectomy the cervid presented a metatarsal opened fracture, dying during the orthopedic surgery. No macro or micrometric metastasis was observed at the necropsy.

Planning and development decisions in both the government and business sectors often require small area population forecasts. Unfortunately, current methods often produce forecasts that are inaccurate, particularly for remote areas and those with smaller populations. Such inaccuracy necessitates the development and evaluation of methods to forecast and communicate forecast uncertainty, however, little research has been conducted in this domain for small area populations. In this paper, we evaluate a set of probabilistic forecasting methods which include Autoregressive integrated moving average, Exponential Smoothing, THETA, LightGBM and XGBOOST, to produce point forecasts and 80% prediction intervals for Australian SA2 small area populations. We also investigate methods to combine the intervals to produce ensemble forecasts. Our results show that individual probabilistic methods generally produce prediction intervals which underestimate forecast uncertainty. Combining forecasts improves the overall accuracy of point forecasts and the coverage of their intervals, however, coverage still tends to be less than the expected 80% for all but the most conservative combination method.
