Resumo: | The reproductive behaviour of five male and two female semi-captive Tapirus terrestris was investigated for two years without interruption. They were fenced in a 160 hectare area, in Santa Catarina State, South of Brazil. Data was collected whenever an animal exhibited reproductive behaviour. Seven behaviours, observed in eleven reproductive events, were divided into three categories: courtship, copulation and post-copulation. The tapirs displayed stereotypical patterns of sexual behaviour. No kind of audible vocalization was recorded during the reproductive period. All reproductive activity began in the second quarter of July and continued up to the first half of October, in both years of observation, pointing towards the existence of a reproductive season, corroborated by two births after expected gestation period from copula. |

O comportamento reprodutivo de cinco machos e duas fêmeas antas (Tapirus terrestris (Linnaeus, 1758) em semi-cativeiro foi investigado ininterruptamente por dois anos. Os animais estavam numa área cercada de 160ha, no Estado de Santa Catarina, sul do Brasil. Os dados foram coletados sempre que um animal exibisse comportamento reprodutivo. Sete comportamentos observados em 11 eventos reprodutivos foram divididos em três categorias: corte, cópula e pós-cópula. As antas apresentaram padrões comportamentais reprodutivos estereotipados. Nenhum tipo de vocalização detectável foi registrado durante o período. A atividade reprodutiva iniciou na segunda metade de julho até a metade de outubro, nos dois anos de observação, sugerindo a existência de uma estação reprodutiva. Além disso, houve dois nascimentos após gestações esperadas de cópulas registradas.Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina2007-01-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/biotemas/article/view/20631Biotemas; v. 20 n. 4 (2007); 135-1392175-79250103-1643reponame:Biotemas (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/biotemas/article/view/20631/18805Copyright (c) 2007 Marcos A.
