3 May 1974 | Journal: | Science, 184 (4136), 581-583 | Abstract: | Conditioned aversions were induced in coyotes by producing lithium chloride illness in them following a meal, and the effects upon eating and attack behavior were observed. One trial with a given meat and lithium is sufficient to establish a strong aversion which inhibits eating the flesh of that prey. One or two trials with a given flesh (lamb or rabbit) specifically suppresses the attack upon the averted prey but leaves the coyote free to attack the alternative prey. A method of saving both prey and predator is discussed. | Source: | PubMed, pmid17755036 doi: 10.1126/science.184.4136.581 | Services: | Forum | Review | Favorites |
