Open-access Uniparity in pacas bred in captivity (Agouti paca, Linnaeus, 1766)

AuthorshipSCIMAGO INSTITUTIONS RANKINGS

    During four years 25 pregnancies were detected in 13 different pacas by means of ultrasonography at a wild animal section. After ultrasound detection, females were separated in individual sets for delivering and kept until weaning of newborns. Only one newborn by delivery occurred, remarking the reproductive characteristic of uniparity, what suggests the trend of only one newborn in each delivery.
