Soziale Prozesse der Selbstregulation einer Wildkaninchenpopulation (Oryctolagus cuniculus L.)
Wahrend einer Populationsstudie von Wildkaninchen innerhalb eines 22000 m2 großen Freigeheges wurden strukturelle und demographische Parameter über 16 Jahre aufgenommen. 1. Populationsdynamik: Trotz einer jährlichen Produktion von 258-1080 Jungtieren verblieb die Adulttierdichte stabil und …

Neural Mechanisms of Thermoregulation in the Rabbit, Oryctolagus Cuniculus
The preoptic/anterior hypothalamus (POAH) is considered a prime integrative site for thermoregulatory control in mammals. Certain neurotropic agents can alter the activity of the POAH and thus affect thermoregulatory control. The major objective of this study is to investigate the changes in POAH …

The prevalence and impact of internal parasites on the wild rabbit, Oryctolagus cuniculus (L.)
A total of 179 wild rabbits were cage-trapped or shot from sites throughout N. Ireland. Each rabbit was dissected and the following parameters recorded; age of rabbit (defined by rabbit weight), sex of rabbit, reproductive state, infection with myxomatosis and liver weight. The liver, stomach, …

Oscillating Heat Flow From the Pinna of the Ear of the Rabbit (Oryctolagus Cuniculus)
… pinna of the ear of New Zealand White rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) was studied using infrared (IR) thermography, which measures the thermal characteristics of the pinna more accurately than the standard method of measuring pinna temperature with a thermocouple. Heat flow from the pinna was …

The Effects of Hypobaric Pressure on Thermoregulation in The Unrestrained New Zealand White Rabbit, Oryctolagus Cuniculus
The thermoregulatory responses of unrestrained New Zealand white rabbits were studied in relation to altitudes of 20,000 feet, 25,000 and 30,000 feet, and at ambient temperatures of 0(DEGREES)C, 15(DEGREES)C and 25(DEGREES)C at these three altitudes. Forty-two adult male New Zealand white rabbits …

Exploring domestic rabbit (<i>Oryctolagus cuniculus</i>) personality utilising behaviour coding, behaviour testing and a novel behaviour rating tool
… personality traits in domestic rabbits (<i>Oryctolagus cuniculus</i>) and to evaluate a range of tools, suitable for use in a shelter setting, that can be used to measure personality traits. A literature review highlighted limited evaluation of reliability and validity in rabbit personality …

Feeding facilitation, the hidden interaction in mammalian herbivore assemblages?: a case-study on rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus L.) and large grazers
This thesis focuses on the positive interaction ‘feeding facilitation’ which is predicted to occur in assemblages of large and small(er) herbivore species. The main hypothesis of the research is that introduced large herbivores facilitate rabbits (medium-sized herbivores) by modification of the …

Evaluating the clinical and physiological effects of long term ultraviolet B radiation on guinea pigs (Cavia porcellus) and rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus)
… artificial UVB light supplementation on rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) and guinea pigs (Cavia porcellus) and to evaluate the long-term safety of artificial UVB light supplementation over the course of six months in these species. Twelve juvenile acromelanic albino Hartley guinea pigs and twelve …

The Effects of Cocaine and Ecstasy on Cardiac Myocytes and the Intact Myocardium
… myocytes (H9c2) and New Zealand White rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) were used to measure the responses to various concentrations of cocaine or ecstasy at both the cellular and intact organ system levels. We observed that cocaine and ecstasy significantly altered several homeostatic parameters …

Evaluation of fecal glucocorticoid metabolite assays for short-term stressors and validation for stress monitoring in African herbivores
… in captive raised New Zealand White rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) and wild caught Mourning doves (Zenaida macroura). While both species showed increases in plasma corticosterone levels in response to short-term stressors, we did not detect corresponding changes in FGM levels. The inability …
