Foraging efficiencies of competing rodents: why do gerbils exhibit shared-preference habitat selection?
Thus, we have dual processes in the gerbil as well.
In addition, six gerbils showed severe convulsion, with progressive emaciation and gerbils finally died from cachexia with neurological symptoms 2 weeks after inoculation.
However, little is known about the migratory behaviour or pathogenesis of ascarid larvae in gerbils.
For recovering the parasite, the inoculation sites, livers and peritoneal cavities of the gerbils were examined at necropsy.
Up to three 5 l injections were made in each gerbil retina with each injection placed at a different location.
Foraging substrate and escape substrate: patch use by three species of gerbils.
Histopathological sections revealed a larva in the optic nerve of the gerbil 6 days after inoculation (fig. 2).
