Use of chlorophacinone in the struggle against the common vole (Microtus arvalis Pallas) and against the muskrat (Ondatra zibethicus L.)

Use of the anticoagulant rodenticide chlorophacinone was largely developed in France during the past decade. Laboratory and field trials of this compound’s development for control of the common vole (Microtus arvalis) and the introduced muskrat (Ondatra zibethica) are described. Efficacy and risk to nontarget game species were evaluated, as are other candidate anticoagulants that were investigated

Antalogi puisi: karya anak-anak bangsa dari Papua

Antalogi puisi karya anak-anak bangsa dari Papua merupakan salah satu bentuk apresiasi Balai Bahasa Papua, Badan Pengembangan dan Pembinaan Bahasa, Kementerian Pendidikan dan Kebudayaan terhadap anak-anak bangsa yang memiliki keterampilan menulis sastra, terutama puisi. Hal ini dilakukan mengingat pemahaman masyarakat terhadap konsep estetika masih kurang. Puisi dalam buku ini merupakan hasil karya sastra siswa-siswi sekolah dasar dan sekolah menengah pertama yang mengikuti sayembara penulisan puisi bagi siwa SD dan SMP se-Papua dan Papua Barat

USE OF CHLOROPHACINONE IN THE STRUGGLE AGAINST THE COMMON VOLE (\u3ci\u3eMicrotus arvalis\u3c/i\u3e Pallas) AND AGAINST THE MUSKRAT \u3ci\u3eOndatra zibethica\u3c/i\u3e L.)

The use of the anticoagulant rodenticide, chlorophacinone, was largely developed in France during the last ten years. Its special properties, with respect to those of other anticoagulants currently known, have contributed largely to finding an effective and economically acceptable solution in the struggle against the two most damaging rodents in France: the common vole (Microtus arvalis P. ) and the muskrat (Ondatra zibethica L. )

Répercussion de la myxomatose sur les populations de lapin de garenne en France

This report gives the results of a survey on the present population level of rabbits in France after the recent spread of Myxomatosis. 250 « tableaux de chasse » (number of rabbits shot and destroyed during the shooting period) are recorded and analysed. In Sologne, where the rabbits have always been very abun dant and, in the district of « Chartres » (département d’Eure-et- Loir) where Myxomatosis was first introduced, the population was exterminated or reduced to a very low level during the first two years after the spread of the disease; but it increased during the following two years, reaching now from 2 to 25 per cent of the population level before Myxomatosis. In some places, especially in the habitats where the rabbits were not abundant, the population level may be notably higher. Some data from other districts in France confirm these preliminary results. At the present time it is therefore very difficult to forecast the future population level of rabbits in France

L'épizootie de myxomatose en France chez le lapin de garenne (oryctolagus cuniculus l.)

This paper presents some of the conclusions drawn from an enquiry conducted amongst French sportsmen. Five maps show the spread of the disease from June 1952 to the present time. This particular method of presenting the available information is discussed. In the propagation of the disease, an important role appears to have been played by the conditions prevailing during the spring and summer of 1953, and, to a lesser extent, by the secondary centres of infection in the South of France. Five districts remain slightly or not at all infected by myxomatosis at the present time : Lorraine and Jura, the Alps, the Pyrenees, the Massif Central and Brittany. Our study emphasizes the importance, for the spread of myxomatosis, of certain ecological factors : density of population, altitude, presence or absence of burrows, etc.Les auteurs présentent quelques-unes des conclusions d’une enquête menée auprès des chasseurs sur l’épizootie de Myxomatose en France. L’historique de l’extension de la maladie est résumé en cinq cartes donnant la progression de la maladie entre juin 1952 et maintenant. La critique de la méthode de présentation est faite. Le printemps et l’été 1953, ainsi que, à un moindre degré, l’existence de foyers secondaires dans le Midi de la France, apparaissent avoir joué un rôle important dans l’extension de la maladie. Cinq régions de France restent encore peu ou pas touchées par la Myxomatose : Lorraine et Jura, Alpes, Pyrénées, Massif Central et Bretagne. L’examen des diverses explications de ce fait montre que les facteurs écologiques : densité de population, altitude, présence ou absence de terriers, etc., ont joué un rôle important dans l’extension de la Myxomatose en France. L’étude des facteurs écologiques mériterait d’être approfondie.Giban J., Barthelemy J., Aubry J. L'épizootie de myxomatose en France chez le lapin de garenne (oryctolagus cuniculus l.).
