Relationships between chemical structure and rat repellency. II. Compounds screened between 1950 and 1960 Relationships between chemical structure and rat repellency. II. Compounds screened between 1950 and 1960
Over 4,600 compounds, chiefly organic types, were evaluated using both a food acceptance test (Part A) and a barrier penetration bioassay (Part B), to correlate relationships between chemical structure and rodent repellency.These chemicals are indexed and classified according to the functional groups present and to the degree of substitution within their molecular structures. The results...

Homing to nest baskets by wild female mallards Homing to nest baskets by wild female mallards
A high rate of homing to nest baskets by adult female mallards (Anas platyrhynchos) was observed in prairie potholes of North Dakota. One hundred and thirteen female mallards were caught on nest baskets, banded, and marked with nasal saddles. Forty-six percent homed at least once to nest baskets in the marshes where they were previously captured. Two-thirds of the returnees were observed...
