The giant anteater is a large animal and can be very aggressive with its claws if disturbed, it belongs to the Xenarthra Order, Family Myrmecophagidae, which are toothless members, and therefore called edentats. Some reports have been made about this species, but many relevant data have not been published, emphasizing basic concepts of morphology and biometrics, which could be extremely useful for the development of reproductive biotechnologies, aiming at the preservation of the species. For this study, two animals donated by UFRA – PA were used, in which the microscopic characteristics of the female reproductive system were analyzed, in order to clarify the peculiar aspects of the species. The results obtained reveal that the ovaries, fallopian tubes and uterus are similar histologically to those of domestic animals.
Descrição microscópica do sistema reprodutor feminino do Tamanduá Mirim

The juvenile anteater is an extremely captivating and docile animal, belongs to the Xenarthra Order, Family Myrmecophagidae, which are toothless members, and therefore called edentats. As it is an animal of our fauna, data about the species, with regard to morphology and physiological aspects, are very scarce, and generally focus on diseases and external parasites, from capture and expeditions. For this study, two animals donated by UFRA – PA were used, in which the macroscopic characteristics of the female reproductive system were analyzed, in order to clarify the morphological aspects of the female reproductive system, peculiar to the species, in order to assist in their preservation and create reproductive biotechnology tools. The obtained results reveal that the ovaries are longilinear, the uterine tubes tortuous, and the simple uterus in pear shape, as well as in the sloth, in the woman and in the primates. The cervix is quite thick and the vagina communicates with the vestibule and the vulva.

Swine fever is a disease that has already been eradicated. It has great economic importance because it is highly lethal and has a very large transmission capacity, and can condemn herds that are up to 150 km away from the main focus. There is no treatment, so all animals that are in isolation, including dogs and cats, must be euthanized.
