Resumen
KAIZER, Mariane C; NOVAES, Camila M y FARIA, Michel B. Wild boar Sus scrofa (Cetartiodactyla, Suidae) in fragments of the atlantic forest, southeastern Brazil: new records and potential environmental impacts. Mastozool. neotrop. [online]. 2014, vol.21, n.2, pp.343-347. ISSN 0327-9383.
The wild boar is one of the worst invasive species in the world. This study records the presence of the species in fragments of the Atlantic forest in Southeastern Brazil. These records extend the distribution of this species in the country and provide the first record in the wild, in Rio de Janeiro State. The potential impacts on the native biodiversity caused by the invasion of this exotic species are briefly discussed.
