Preliminary Bait Trials with Captive Stoats
Preliminary trials were undertaken to determine which of three baits (fish-based catfood, hen eggs, and dead mice) commonly used to catch stoats (Mustela erminea) was the most attractive. All six stoats ate eggs and mice significantly more often than catfood. Combining results from both sexes, there was no significant preference between eggs and mice; when results were divided by sex however, f...
متن کاملPersistence of sodium monofluoroacetate (1080) and diphacinone in hen eggs for control of stoats (Mustela erminea)
Hen eggs injected with either sodium monofluoroacetate (1080) or diphacinone are being used by the Department of Conservation for the control of stoats (Mustela erminea ). The eggs remain attractive to stoats for at least 1 month. This study investigates the persistence of the toxins in eggs incubated at two temperatures of 1080 in eggs incubated at both temperatures and the amount of diphacino...
متن کاملEffectiveness of diphacinone to control stoat populations
In the spring of 1996, work was undertaken to establish the effectiveness of the anticoagulant poison diphacinone to control stoat (Mustela erminea) populations. We attempted to determine whether stoats in the wild would take diphacinone delivered in eggs and, if they died as a result, what proportion of the stoat population was killed. Stoats were live trapped, and radio transmitter collars we...
متن کاملLack of movement of stoats (Mustela erminea) between Nothofagus valley floors and alpine grasslands, with implications for the conservation of New Zealand’s endangered fauna
Little is known about the movement of stoats in alpine grassland, where several species of native birds, reptiles and invertebrates are potentially at risk from predation. Radio-tracking, live trapping and tracking tunnel techniques were used to sample stoats in two adjacent habitats to determine whether the home range of stoats in beech forest valley floors extends into neighbouring alpine gra...
