The crab-eating fox Cerdocyon thous has a diverse diet ranging from plants to vertebrates, but its diet has never been comprehensively reviewed. Here, we provide the first such review and report the first-ever record of C. thous feeding on the Brazilian lancehead Bothrops moojeni, although other Bothrops species have been documented in the diet of this fox species.
El zorro cangrejero Cerdocyon thous tiene una dieta diversa que va desde plantas hasta vertebrados, pero su dieta nunca ha sido revisada exhaustivamente. Aquí, brindamos la primera revisión de este tipo e informamos el primer registro de C. thous alimentándose de la serpiente punta de lanza brasileña Bothrops moojeni, aunque se han documentado otras especies de Bothrops en la dieta de esta especie de zorro.
