Compared to published data, the length of intestinal sections of maned wolves was similar to those of other canids, suggesting that relative intestinal length is conserved within the clade.
“Compared to published data, the length of intestinal sections of maned wolves was similar to those of other canids, suggesting that relative intestinal length is conserved within the clade (Fig. 2).”

The size of the caecum does not correlate with the proportion of vegetable matter in the diet.
“In particular, the size of the caecum, a typical site of fermentation of difficult-todigest material such as plant fiber, does not correlate with the proportion of vegetable matter in the diet (McGrosky et al. 2016).”

The intestinal tract of L. culpaeus differs from that of the Mongolian wolf, Canis lupus chanco, which presents a larger intestine (4840 mm) and a caecum of 125 mm (vs. 2280 mm and caecum of 47.93 mm in L. culpaeus).

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
