Locally abundant ungulates often come into conflict with human activities. After a population
collapse that reached its nadir in the 1970s, the guanaco Lama guanicoe population in …

The guanaco Lama guanicoe was the only large native herbivore widely distributed across
Patagonia until the introduction of domestic sheep Ovis aries. Guanacos have declined …

The first density estimates of a peripheral guanaco population and its habitat use at different
spatial scales are presented for a protected area of Monte desert, Argentina. Transects were …

Spatially explicit modelling allows to estimate population abundance and predict species'
distribution in relation to environmental factors. Abiotic factors are the main determinants of a …

Guanaco responses to spatial heterogeneity were evaluated in La Payunia Protected Area,
Patagonia, through analysis of guanaco diet and density, and food availability, in four …

Guanacos (Lama guanicoe) are the only wild ungulate species widely distributed across the
Patagonian steppe and have undergone a precipitous population decline since the …

Abstract Background Guanacos (Lama guanicoe) are thought to have declined in Patagonia
mainly as a result of hunting and sheep ranching. Currently accepted estimates of total …

We studied abundance, habitat use and social structure of an isolated population of
guanacos in the Lihue Calel National Park in central Argentina, based on data from foot …

Context The guanaco is the largest wild herbivore inhabiting the Patagonian steppes. Since
the end of the 19th Century, it has suffered a progressive decline in numbers owing to …

Abstract The Guanaco (Lama guanicoe) has suffered a progressive decline in numbers
because of unregulated hunting and poaching by an assumed competition with sheep …
