TL;DR: It is concluded that both flooding and floodwater-nutrient load are very important in the structuring of lowland Amazonian bat assemblage, with inundation mostly constraining the species composition of the assemblages, and water-nutrients load mostly influencing the abundance of species.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used YouTube to detect the occurrence of sport hunting in Brazil, measure the impacts of the activity on the main Brazilian game species and biomes, evaluate the opinions of hunters and internet users on sport hunting, and discuss the need for policy interventions in wildlife conservation in this country.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared three wildlife monitoring systems in indigenous lands and sustainable development reserves in Brazilian Amazonia and Namibian Caprivi conservancies, analyzing the strategies adopted and conditions that facilitated local empowerment, as well as potential impacts on conservation.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe water level variation at a varzea site in the Middle Solimoes river region (Amazon River) in the Mamiraua Sustainable Development Reserve from 1990 to 2008, during this period, water level varied between a minimum of 21,71 and a maximum of 38,55 meters above sea level.

TL;DR: It is recommended that anthropogenic changes in the region be monitored, and conservation measures be taken to protect these primates, especially considering the endemism and very restricted range of Saimiri vanzolinii and its consequent vulnerability to extinction.
