Oral Administration of Tiletamine/zolazepam for the Immobilization of the Common Buzzard (buteo Buteo)
--The purpose of this study was to test the efficacy of oral administration of tiletamine/ zolazepam in a bait fbr immobilizing Common Buzzards (Buteo buteo) (N = 20). Two different dosages and two different methods of administration were compared. A dosage of 80 mg/kg was sufficient in most birds to enable safe handling after 30-60 min, whereas the majority of animals receiving 40 rag/ kg stil...
متن کاملDensity, number and habitat use of Common Buzzard (Buteo buteo) wintering in the lowlands of Bulgaria
National survey on density, number and habitat use of Common Buzzards wintering in the lowlands (under 650 m a.s.l.) of Bulgaria was conducted in January 2006. Combined method of road count survey with point count technique modified by Distance analysis was applied. A total of 174 point transects were made and 501 Common Buzzards were registered.

متن کاملPredator-dependent functional response in wolves: from food limitation to surplus killing.
The functional response of a predator describes the change in per capita kill rate to changes in prey density. This response can be influenced by predator densities, giving a predator-dependent functional response. In social carnivores which defend a territory, kill rates also depend on the individual energetic requirements of group members and their contribution to the kill rate. This study ai...
متن کاملHabitat use and hunting behaviour of Common Buzzards Buteo buteo wintering in south-western Poland
During seven winter seasons (1993/1994–1999/2000) 107 roadside counts (28 km each) in agricultural area of south-western Poland were conducted. From among 1526 Buzzards, 1293 were recorded in winter months (November–February) and 233 in March. Birds were non-randomly distributed on nine vegetation types met along the transect route. Permanent papilionaceous crops, along with cereal stubbles, ma...
متن کاملTrace element concentrations in livers of Common Buzzards Buteo buteo from eastern Poland
In this study, our aim was to determine the common sources of origin of 18 elements in the livers of Common Buzzards collected during the breeding season in an extensive agricultural landscape in south-east Poland with respect to age (adults and immatures) and sex (males and females). In all 34 specimens collected, the element concentrations followed the pattern of S > Na > Fe > Mg > Zn > Si > ...
