curassow

Wattled curassows in Bolivia: abundance, habitat use, and conservation status.

Vicariant speciation of curassows (Aves, Cracidae): a hypothesis based on mitochondrial DNA phylogeny.

Unlike curassows (Cracinae), chachalacas and guans (Penelopinae) are not primarily seed predators because they don't have gizzard and therefore do not grind seeds (Guix, 2006; Guix and Ruiz, 1997); are typical frugivorous, with the ability to disperse large quantities of seeds (Brooks, 2006; Munoz and Kattan, 2007; Santamaria and Franco, 2000).

Curassows (pheasant-like birds) are the gems of the hides genre.

Sexidentification of parrots, toucans, and curassows by PCR: perspectives for wild and captive population studies.

Over a small suspension bridge the lodges observatory building, museum and a small infinity pool were set in well planted grounds which was alive with hummingbirds, guans and curassows; huge turkey-like birds.

Less important in terms of biomass but frequently killed are hares Sylvilagus brasiliensis, opossums Didelphis marsupialis, medium size reptiles (especially turtles and iguanas), and large birds, such as curassows Crax sp.

During the past 5 years, a research project that remotely monitors Tiputini lands through a system of motion- and heat-sensitive cameras has captured about 30,000 images of terrestrial mammals and birds, including five species of felines, two species of wild dogs, two species of peccaries, two species of deer, tapirs, giant armadillos, giant anteaters, curassows, and trumpeters.

In other areas of the Amazon curassows are the most preferred game birds as they are large and easy to find in areas where the population is stable (e.g.

The shopping list of traded species is endless: cheetahs and chanting goshawks from Somalia, houbara bustards and gazelles from Iran, chameleons and leopards from Yemen, black eagles and chimpanzees from Africa, and sloths and curassows from Brazil.
