TL;DR: The jaguar is the top predator of the Atlantic Forest, which is a highly threatened biodiversity hotspot that occurs in Brazil, Paraguay and Argentina, and by combining data sets from 14 research groups across the region, the population status is determined and a spatial prioritization for conservation actions is proposed.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated how habitat loss and overhunting impact large carnivores in the Gran Chaco ecoregion in Argentina, Paraguay and Bolivia and found that Jaguar core areas contracted by 33% (82,400 km²) from 1985 to 2013, mainly due to an expansion of hunting threats.

TL;DR: One of the largest datasets of inventories of terrestrial mammal communities for the Neotropical region based on camera trapping studies is compiled, used to understand macroecological patterns of biodiversity, community, and population structure, but also to evaluate the ecological consequences of fragmentation, defaunation, and trophic interactions.
