Abstract
The types of habitats used by the crab-eating fox for which direct observations and indirect evidence (tracks and feces), are characterized and evaluated. A habitat Suitable Index (HSI) is calculated for each habitat, considering variables of feeding.
An analysis of use and preference for each type of habitat was made using number of trachs found and the extent of each type of habitat. Although there is a tendency to prefer the old natural savannas, neither preference nor significant rejection by tipe of habitat was found.
