\textit{S. Alexander} [Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 64, 321--325 (1977; Zbl 0398.53028)] proved that a locally convex immersion of a compact, connected manifold \(N^n\) (\(n\geq 2\)) in a complete, simply connected Riemannian manifold \(M^{n+1}\) of nonpositive curvature is an embedding, its image is the boundary of a convex body and is homeomorphic to the sphere \(S^n\). In this note, the result is generalized to an ambient Finsler manifold.
