Effects of implanted radiotransmitters on captive mourning doves
Article Abstract:
Surgical techniques were developed and refined for implanting subcutaneous and intra-abdominal radiotransmitters in mourning doves and their physiological and pathological effects were studied. Necropsy findings showed that intra-abdominal implants showed little or no tissue response to the implants. Functioning transmitters began failing two weeks after implantation and 85% were nonfunctional after 10 weeks. Data suggested that subcutaneous implants with external antennas were a better alternative compared to intra-abdominal implants with external antennas.
