Modelling for Research on Chemical Control of Mammals in New Zealand

چکیده
Development of predictive formulae or qualitative statements about the probable outcome of control campaigns entails knowledge of bait quality and distribution, behavior, vagaries of weather at the time of the control campaign, and other factors which govern the probability that the target animals w i l l accept bait. This paper collates experience in recognizing, estimating and using some of these variables for predicting the outcome of large-scale poisoning, and discusses possible approaches to the solution of some hard-core problems.

متن کاملEcological Consequences of Toxin Use for Mammalian Pest Control in New Zealand — an Overview
Toxins, especially sodium monofluoroacetate (1080) and brodifacoum, are widely used throughout New Zealand for control of introduced mammals that are considered pests. This level of toxin use (not necessarily with these toxins) is unlikely to decline for at least 5–10 years. Ecological consequences derive both from mammal population reduction or eradication, and from using toxins as the control...
