Coexistence between jaguar an pumas
2011 Cat News (54): 32-32
Mechanisms allowing for coexistence between potential competing species are not well known. Jaguars _Panthera onca _and pumas _Puma concolor _have a high potential for interspecific interference and exclusion since both species are commonly found in the same habitats and areas. We are developing a large-scale study to look deeper into the mechanisms that allow for coexistence between both species, mainly focusing on individual characteristics. We want to establish collaboration with research teams working with any of the two species.
