Reproductive state of hunted female mammals during 2000-2015 in Nueva Esperanza, Peruvian Andes

The annual birthrate of female offspring and the intrinsic rate of natural increase (rmax) of populations are key reproductive parameters in models for assessing hunting sustainability or population viability of species. We calculated wild birthrate (pregnancy rate) for ten mammal species, using 180 months (from 2000 to 2015) of reproductive data from 950 hunted female animals collected with the participation of local hunters in the Peruvian Amazon. The methodology assured that no animals were killed outside the hunter's normal activities. The data included shows the reproductive state (pregnant or non-pregnant) of all collected individuals (n=1090), related to the date of collection. Hunters registered required data from genital organs from 950 (87.2%) hunted females, and 140 (12.8%) collected tracts lacked the collection date due to lost or non-legible individual sample codification.

Age and growth, and reproductive data from two benthic (Trematomus bernacchii and Trematomus pennellii) and two pelagic (Pagothenia borchgrevinki and Trematomus newnesi) ice fishes from McMurdo Sound, Antarctica

Data on age, total length, total weight, gonad weight, gonadosomatic index (GSI), sex and reproductive stage for ice fish specimens collected along the sea ice gradient in McMurdo Sound, Antarctica. Species on which data are provided are; Trematomus bernacchii, Trematomus bernacchii, Pagothenia borchgrevinki and Trematomus newnesi. Location and year of collection is also included for each fish.
