In our experiment, more seeds remained in exclosures after 55 d, whether in groves or under solitary palms, suggesting the impact of peccaries. To distinguish seed removal by peccaries from that of other seed predators, we built 2 x 2-m exclosures around half the selected palms. Distribution of palm fruits on a rainforest floor: why white-lipped peccaries forage near objects. Squirrels specialize on palm endocarps year round, and whitelipped peccaries may not be using them as a scarcity food source.

Distribution of palm fruits on a rain forest floor: why white-lipped peccaries forage near objects.

Moreover, according to the hit-or-miss principle, peccary foraging should result in greater between-site variance than seed removal by rodents. Distribution of palm fruits on a rain-forest floor: why white-lipped peccaries forage near objects. Large seed arrays probably release more chemical cues, which are readily detected by macrosmatic peccaries. For white-lipped peccaries, fruit availability was not adequately measured by the two transects. White-lipped peccaries used this route repeatedly during the study period, and cracked endocarps at the same trees over and over again as they passed through. Only the distal end of endocarps cracked by white-lipped peccaries were counted. These examples are from corpora and from sources on the web.
