EFFECT OF PERPHENAZINE ENANTHATE IN PYRENEAN CHAMOIS (RUPICAPRA PYRENAICA)

Abstract: The term "long-acting neuroleptic" is used to describe a member of a group of tranquilizers that has been used in wildlife over the past 20 years. Tranquilizers comprise one of many groups of pharmacologically active agents that have their primary effect by modulating neurotransmitter activity within the central nervous system [1]. There are five main neurotransmitters that are involved in behavior modification: acetylcholine, dopamine, norepinephrine, serotonin, and γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA). Tranquilizers, … Show more

“…In contrast to our hypothesis, onagers exhibited no change in stress-associated behaviors. LANs have reduced the behavioral stress response in other species, including increased inactivity and approachability (Diverio et al, 1996) and reduced pacing and escape-related behaviors in red deer (Read et al, 2000), increased recumbent time in Mohor gazelle (Gonz alez et al, 2008), and decreased flight distance in Pyrenean chamois (Rupicapra pyrenaica; Marco et al, 2013). Although onagers exhibited higher rates of aggression than reported in domestic horse-mares with foals (12.61 counts/hr Weeks et al, 2000), rates were lower than zoo-housed Somali wild asses (84 AE 16.5 counts/hr; Asa et al, 2012).…”

“…Long‐acting neuroleptics (LANs) are commonly used in the management of non‐domestic ungulates to reduce the stress response during capture and translocation (for review: Ebedes, ; Marco et al, ), and may consequently improve the success of ARTs (González et al, ). However, LAN‐induced mitigation of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal stress response may come with a reproductive cost.…”
