Abstract
The subspecies of pampas deer Ozotocerus bezoarticus uruguayensis is an endemic and endangered cervid from southeast Uruguay. However, knowledge regarding its home range requirements in agroecosystems is scarce. Our aim was to survey ten radio–collared pampas deer for two years to monitor their movements. The mean home–range size was 5.54 ± 3.18 km2. The core area size for all individuals monitored was 0.87 km2, which concurs with grazing crops for beef cattle. The population showed philopatric behavior and no significant differences were detected in the total area of occupation in respect to sex and season.
期刊介绍：
Animal Biodiversity and Conservation (antes Miscel·lània Zoològica) es una revista interdisciplinar, publicada desde 1958 por el Museu de Ciències Naturals de Barcelona. Incluye artículos de investigación empírica y teórica en todas las áreas de la zoología (sistemática, taxonomía, morfología, biogeografía, ecología, etología, fisiología y genética) procedentes de todas las regiones del mundo. La revista presta especial interés a los estudios que planteen un problema nuevo o introduzcan un tema nuevo, con hipòtesis y prediccions claras, y a los trabajos que de una manera u otra tengan relevancia en la biología de la conservación. No se publicaran artículos puramente descriptivos, o artículos faunísticos o corológicos en los que se describa la distribución en el espacio o en el tiempo de los organismes zoológicos.
