Resumen:
We present evidence of common vampire bats Desmodus rotundus (É. Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire, 1810) attacking two wild exotic mammals; the wild pig Sus scrofa (Linnaeus, 1758) and the chital deer Axis axis (Erxleben, 1777). Observations were made in El Palmar National Park, Entre Rios province (Argentina) using camera traps. To our knowledge, this is the f rst report documenting attacks of vampire bats to exotic wild mammals in Argentina.
