First Report

This short communication reports ectoparasitism on a Myocastor coypus specimen found lifeless, killed by motor vehicles in the municipality of Lages, Santa Catarina, Brazil, near the SC-438 highway. Necropsy examination revealed the presence of ticks of the Ixodidae family on the ventral region of the animal’s body. Fourteen female specimens were collected and identified as Amblyomma brasiliense, with the following phenotypic characteristics: ornate scutum with whitish spots, strong spines on coxa I, spines on the internal border shorter than on the external border, half of the article length, and spines on the internal boarder on coxae II to IV were short and not very evident. The use of wild animals killed by motor vehicles on highways has proven to be relevant to the study of parasitic fauna. Although the occurrence of A. brasiliense among rodents has been previously reported, this is the first report in the literature of that species among M. coypus.

Method Of Evaluation

The results of alternative studies on the immunogenic activity of live rabies vaccines for oral immunization of wild carnivorous animals are presented. The method of evaluation of immunogenicity using a model of oral immunization in mice with experimental infection control rabies virus CVS in the dose of 10–100 MLD50/0,03 ml. Once entered immunizing dose for white mice, weighing 12–14 g were 56.200 MLD50, the titers of VNA ranged from 1:6 to 1:16 (3,0–4,0 log2) and above.

Animal Control

City-scale urban greening is expanding wildlife habitat in previously less hospitable urban areas. Does this transformation also prompt a reckoning with the longstanding idea that cities are places intended to satisfy primarily human needs? I pose this question in the context of one of North America's most ambitious green infrastructure programmes to manage urban runoff: Philadelphia's Green City, Clean Waters. Given that the city's green infrastructure plans have little to say about wildlife, I investigate how wild animals fit into urban greening professionals' conceptions of the urban. I argue that practitioners relate to urban wildlife via three distinctive frames: 1) animal control, 2) public health and 3) biodiversity, and explore the implications of each for peaceful human-wildlife coexistence in 'greened' cities.
