Neonatal diseases in llamas and alpacas.

29 Jun 2009 This article attempts to cover the most common problems likely to present in neonatal crias and to give guidance on how to approach these cases, particularly how to stabilize the acute presentation of a sick neonate. It is impossible to cover every ... Read more...

Naturally occurring variations in defensive burying behavior are associated with differences in vasopressin, oxytocin, and androgen receptors in the male rat.

16 Jun 2009 Largely ignored in tests of defensive burying is the capacity for individual animals to display marked variations in active coping behaviors. To expose the neurobiological correlates of this behavioral differentiation rats were exposed to a ... Read more...
