Ecology of the Central American cacomistle,
Bassariscus sumichrasti, in Costa Rica.
The cave is occasionally used today by Ursus americanus (black bear; Ursidae; skeletal remains were recovered from elsewhere in the cave) as well as
Bassariscus astutus (ringtail; Procyonidae).
Ringtails (
Bassariscus astutus) were seen only at one coastal site (LM, 0.35/transect) and one inland site (CE 0.33/transect).
Ringtails (
Bassariscus astutus) are omnivorous and are known to prey upon mammals and birds (Poglayen-Neuwall and Toweill 1988).

Of the non-fisher carnivores, ringtails
Bassariscus astutus were the most frequently captured.
However, at the county and local level, ringtail (
Bassariscus astutus), Virginia opossum (Didelphis virginiana), and skunks (Mephitis mephitis and Conepatus mesoleucus) also exhibited significant trends in abundance.
Other wild species observed at low numbers included ringtail (
Bassariscus astutus; detections = 7), turkey (Meleagris gallopavo; detections = 15), great horned owl (Bubo virginianus; detections = 4), and red-tailed hawk (detections = 1).

Faecal marking behaviour in ringtails (
Bassariscus astutus) during the nonbreeding period: spatial characteristics of latrines and single faeces.
-- Despite the common occurrence of ringtails (
Bassariscus astutus) few studies have been conducted to assess population characteristics.
The Rio Grande turkey (Meleagris gallopavo intermedia) was recorded in the open, flat grassy areas in the southern parts of the study area, and the ringtail cat (
Bassariscus astutus) was also found in the southern parts of the study area, but in more dense, closed-canopy areas that were also steeper in topography.
