Add a definition Holes were in the middle of the endocarp: agoutis hold the endocarps horizontally and gnaw at them with the lower jaw. From theCambridge English Corpus All sightings of ear-tagged agoutis were also recorded and used to determine their home-range areas. From theCambridge English Corpus Insectivory by agoutis is not as well documented, but several researchers report use of animal matter. From theCambridge English Corpus Due to the consistency in tooth mark size and hole appearance, all endocarps with centred holes were assumed to have been made by agoutis. From theCambridge English Corpus Withagoutipresent, and also when other medium-size mammals were present, seed and pod removal was significant. From theCambridge English Corpus Thus, for the purpose of our analysis, the mainland sites and six islands supportagouti, while seven islands do not. From theCambridge English Corpus We recorded the location of dens or refugees during early morning and late-evening tracking of collared agoutis. From theCambridge English Corpus The majority of fruits that are gnawed open by agoutis are 1-2 y old. From theCambridge English Corpus In all cases, the scatterhoarding behaviour of agoutis ensures high seed survival and enhances regeneration, while non-scatterhoarded seeds provide food to the rodents. From theCambridge English Corpus For agoutis, the time of food scarcity was probably adequately described by the 2-km transects. From theCambridge English Corpus Captive agoutis and squirrels readily ate larvae when presented without the surrounding endocarp, and preferred larvae to seeds. From theCambridge English Corpus In contrast, theagoutishowed no seasonal differences in stomach content mass but two in percentages of fruit and one in percentages of leaves. From theCambridge English Corpus We comparedagoutimovement with the locations of refuges and food trees, and the results suggest that the agoutis are central-place foragers. From theCambridge English Corpus Occurrences were similar to those of theagoutiexcept that seeds were more frequent, leaves and insects less frequent, and fibre present in all stomachs. From theCambridge English Corpus We also gave larvae and seeds to captive agoutis, but not in an experimental setup, because these animals were not individually housed. From theCambridge English Corpus In both theagoutiand the paca, leaf and fibre consumption was highest in periods of fruit scarcity and in the period of increasing fruiting. From theCambridge English Corpus These data were used to measure short-term movements and identify associations between agoutis and habitats. From theCambridge English Corpus Thus, female acouchies ate more fibre annually and seasonally than did males, female agoutis ate more leaves annually, and female pacas ate less fibre seasonally. From theCambridge English Corpus Dental marks on 26 endocarps left at the tent pegs showed that this handling was by agoutis and squirrels. From theCambridge English Corpus Nevertheless, agoutis and squirrels in our field experiment did not discriminate between endocarps with larvae and endocarps with intact seeds, in disagreement with our prediction.
