Early veterinary history in the United States of America.

Those involved in the early history of veterinary medicine in the United States of America provided valuable services and an excellent foundation for later development of the profession. Even though the farriers and cowleeches had little knowledge, and occasionally less ethics, most performed as best they could. Certainly, the medical profession contributed greatly to the success of the American veterinary profession. Furthermore, the influence of British veterinarians and their publications added much to improving the profession. Perhaps the greatest accomplishment for the betterment of the profession was the establishment of the United States Veterinary Medical Association. Once the practicing veterinarians in the United States became organized and concerned, the profession appeared to develop rapidly providing both educational opportunities and pride in veterinary medicine.

A radio-controlled live trap.

A live trap, designed to drop a net by radio control, was constructed to capture small wild mammals and birds. Advantages of the radio-controlled trap included capabilities to select and trap only the species desired, collect animals immediately after capture, eliminate injuries during capture and operate from a protected area a distance from the trap.

Rodent housing units for field studies.

Rodent housing and nesting units were constructed from acrylic and provided with concrete tops. These hexagonal units, placed in a wooded field, were inhabited by deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus). The use of the field housing units provided an effective method for observing free-ranging wild rodents.

Anesthesia in the mouse using a combination of ketamine and promazine.

An anesthetic combination of ketamine and promazine was tested in 25 male and 25 female mice of each of two strains. The mean induction time was 5 minutes for the C57BL/6We mouse and 8 minutes for the DBA/2We mouse. No sex differences were observed. The mean duration time was 45 minutes for the C57BL/6We male, 53 minutes for the C57BL/TWe female, 29 minutes for the DBA/2We male, and 35 minutes for the DBA/2We female. The mean recovery time was 39 minutes for the C57BL/6We male, 38 minutes for the C57BL/6We female, 21 minutes for the DBA/2We male, and 24 minutes for the DBA/2We female. The drug combination provided effective anesthesia for these strains of the laboratory mouse for a period of 30--50 minutes after a single intramuscular injection.

Anesthesia in the rabbit using a combination of ketamine and promazine.

An anesthetic combination of ketamine and promazine (75mg/kg by ketamine content) was tested in 15 male and 15 female adult New Zealand white rabbits. The mean induction time was 9 minutes for both the male and female. Mean duration for anesthesia was 61 minutes for the male and 49 minutes for the female. The mean recovery time was 22 minutes for the male and 33 minutes for the female. The drug combination provided effective anesthesia for a period of 50--60 minutes after a single intramuscular injection.
