Records of Crab-eating fox Cerdocyon thous (Linnaeus, 1766) (Carnivora, Canidae) in Rondônia, Brazil.

We report the first records of Cerdocyon thous on the left bank of the Madeira river, extending its distribution to more than 10 km to the N–W. We carried out a survey of official information present in scientific articles, technical reports, and management plans for conservation units in the state of Rondônia, and accessions to the iNaturalist. Our records show C. thous occurs widely in state, even in busy urban areas such as the area surrounding the international airport of Porto Velho. This highlights the importance of monitoring the fauna present in the urban fragments of Amazonian cities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
