Immobilization of swift foxes with ketamine hydrochloride-xylazine hydrochloride.
There is an increasing need to develop field immobilization techniques that allow researchers to handle safely swift foxes (Vulpes velox) with minimal risk of stress or injury. We immobilized captive swift foxes to determine the safety and effectiveness of ketamine hydrochloride and xylazine hydrochloride at different dosages. We attempted to determine appropriate dosages to immobilize swift fo...
متن کاملImmobilization of free-ranging red foxes (Vulpes vulpes) with tiletamine hydrochloride and zolazepam hydrochloride.
We evaluated Zoletil on free-ranging red foxes (Vulpes vulpes) in Spain. Twenty-two pup and 49 adult wild-caught red foxes (Vulpes vulpes) were immobilized with a combination of tiletamine hydrochloride and zolazepam hydrochloride in a 1:1 proportion (Zoletil). Mean (+/- SE) Zoletil doses were 10.57 (+/- 0.41) mg/kg (range = 7.58-15.39 mg/kg, n = 22) for pups and 10.51 (+/- 0.33) mg/kg (range =...
متن کاملImmobilization of coypus (Myocastor coypus) with ketamine hydrochloride and xylazine hydrochloride.
A combination of 100 mg/ml of ketamine hydrochloride (Ket) and 20 mg/ml of xylazine hydrochloride (Xyl) was used to immobilize coypus (Myocastor coypus). Eight mature coypus (four males and four females) were injected intramuscularly with doses ranging from 2.33 to 6.25 mg/kg of KET and 0.25 to 0.86 mg/kg of Xyl. The mean (+/- SE) time for induction, arousal, and recovery were 7.3 +/- 2 min, 23...
متن کاملDispersal characteristics of swift foxes
From 1997 to 2001, we monitored movements of 109 adult and 114 juvenile swift foxes, Vulpes velox (Say, 1823), at study sites in Colorado, New Mexico, and Texas to determine patterns of dispersal. Significantly more male (93%) than female (58%) juveniles dispersed, and both sexes had similar bimodal dispersal patterns with peaks in September–October and January–February. Adult dispersal occurre...
متن کاملChemical Immobilization of Sloth Bears (Melursus ursinus) with Ketamine Hydrochloride and Xylazine Hydrochloride: Hematology and Serum Biochemical Values
The present study was conducted to define the physiological responses of captive sloth bears immobilized with ketamine hydrochloride and xylazine hydrochloride and to determine and compare the values of hematology and serum biochemical parameters between sexes. A total of 15 sloth bears were immobilized using combination of ketamine hydrochloride and xylazine hydrochloride drugs at the dose rat...
