Comparison Of Methoxymol, Alpha·Chloralose And Two Barbiturates For Capturing Doves
Secobarbital sodium, methohexital sodium, methoxymol, and alphachloralose were used in field experiments to capture mourning doves (Zena1:dura macroura) in Florida during 1966 and the spring or 1967. A total of 240 doves was caught. The four drugs are compared and the best dosage for each is given. Methoxymol proved superior to the others.
