Abstract

We document records of Chrysocyon brachyurus (Illiger, 1815), Maned Wolf, from on a private farm in the municipality of Cambará do Sul, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. The farm borders Parque Nacional da Serra Geral, near Fortaleza Canyon. Twelve new records of Maned Wolf were captured with camera traps between 16 March 2023 and 10 November 2023, in five locations. These records are of significance due to the rarity of this species in Rio Grande do Sul.
