Title:
RABID ANIMAL CONTROL METHOD
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2002062137
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A method is disclosed for luring attack-prone, rabies infected mammals (e.g., carnivores, bats) into restraint and/or euthanasia but not luring normal, uninfected animals. Bats are captured in traps having vertically stretched wires (5) which they encounter during flight. The bats then slide down the wires through a smooth sided hopper (7) and thence downward into a holding cage or euthanizing receptacle (8). In order to attract and capture specifically rapid bats, a second source (9) is attached to the trap and positioned behind the wires to attract attack-prone rabid bats.
