Abstract

dc:description.abstract

"The data presented in this thesis were obtained from a study of confined swamp rabbits (Sylvilagus aquaticus) at the Clifford W. Gaylord Memorial Wildlife Laboratory. The Laboratory, which is operated jointly by the University of Missouri and the Missouri Conservation Commission, is located on the Duck Creek Wildlife Management Area near Puxico In southeast Missouri. Principal objectives were to study reproduction, to secure information on parental behavior, and to study some aspects of juvenile development. Incidental observations were made of social behavior. Research was carried on from the summer of 1964 through early 1966. Most of the material presented was gathered In 1965."--Introduction.
