• Mammal defaunation as surrogate of trophic cascades in a biodiversity hotspot (2013, background): “The white-lipped peccary (hereafter WLP) accounts for the largest vertebrate biomass of Neotropical forests (Kiltie and Terborgh, 1983), and it is an important seed predator with a unique role as ecosystem engineer (Beck, 2005; Keuroghlian and Eaton, 2009).”
• Range-wide declines of a key Neotropical ecosystem architect, the Near Threatened white-lipped peccary Tayassu pecari (2011, background): “White-lipped peccaries use habitats non-randomly, underlining their need for a variety of ecosystem types and their associated fruiting species (Keuroghlian & Eaton, 2008a; Lee & Peres, 2008; Galetti et al., 2009; Keuroghlian & Eaton, 2009).”
