Abstract
Data on 7 instrumented adult female river otters (Lutra canadensis) from 3 study areas in western North America were used to evaluate the effects of intraperitoneal radio transitter implants on reproductive performance. Based on our observations, all stages of the breeding cycle can proceed successfully with a radio package implanted in the abdominal cavity.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
