摘要: The invasion of alien species is an important cause biodiversity loss worldwide, and many mammals are considered successful invaders outside their former range, with recognized detrimental effects to native ecosystems. Our aim was review the current literature on that have established feral populations in Brazil systematize existing knowledge. Furthermore, we evaluated distributions all discuss different management actions, including eradication techniques for island populations. We found 17 living wild Brazil. Based databases regarding invasive species, Lepus europaeus Sus scrofa had largest Brazilian territory seem continue expanding geographic distributions. Feral dogs cats were main predators threatening wildlife conservation, especially protected areas. Further, call attention Bubalus bubalis, a large currently thrives isolated but seems be quickly its distribution. In conclusion, widespread Southern Southeastern Brazil, at least four ungulate (Indian sambar, horse, goat, axis deer) still small Finally, future efforts need evaluate impacts control.
