From Captive Breeding to Wild Reintroduction. A Precedent-Setting Protocol for the Neotropical Otter (Lontra longicaudis) in Southern Brazil

This dataset contains supplementary materials supporting the manuscript entitled "From Captive Breeding to Wild Reintroduction: A Precedent-Setting Protocol for the Neotropical Otter (Lontra longicaudis) in Southern Brazil" by Tosatti et al. These files provide detailed empirical evidence, multimedia documentation, and legal authorizations that underpin the three-phase reintroduction protocol described in the main text. The materials are designed to enhance transparency, facilitate reproducibility, and verify compliance with ethical and legal standards for wildlife translocation. Researchers and conservation practitioners may use these resources to adapt the protocol for other Neotropical mustelid conservation initiatives.
