A Live-Trap and Trapping Technique for Fossorial Mammals [PDF]
An effective live-trap was designed for Cryptomys hottentotus (Bathyergidae) arid Amblysomus hottentotus (Chrysochloridae). Factors involved in the design and adaptability of this trap for use in various field conditions and live capture of other fossorial mammals are discussed.'n Doeltreffende val is ontwerp om Cryptomys hottentotus (Bathyergidae) en ...
