thirteen weeks of recording the pink-eyed Sprague Dawley rats walking across an elevated horizontal ladder, a circular ladder and a treadmill, I now spend most days carefully examining the videos to evaluate the quality of their walking ability. The video begins, as it always does, at an angle below the ladder. The rat appears in the frame, roaming around, to acclimatize with the environment and probably search for its missing cage mate. Rats are social animals and enjoy being in groups. As it…
When the weather starts to get colder, pests such as mice want to get inside your warm home. It's important to learn effective ways of keeping these pests out of your home and how an exterminator can help if they still manage to sneak in. The pest control experts at Tabor Pest Control, located in Dothan, AL, explain the common ways that mice can enter your home.

Remy despite being a rat embodies superior qualities, he is clean, refuses to walk on all fours to avoid soiling food with dirty front paws. Remy’s rat colony comes across as a belonging to a working-class status. Rats live in close quarters near humans but in abject condition under roof and sewers. Rats are dirty and uncouth. They feed on garbage and leftovers and stolen food. They had to be steamed clean and purified before entering the restaurant to prepare food. The subtext embedded…
Animals. These animals were housed on a 12:12 h light cycle (lights on at 07:00 a.m.). Water and food were provided ad libitum. Rats were randomly assigned to different experimental groups after living an acclimation period of 5 days. The CSD paradigm is the same as reported previously (Chen et al. 2012). In brief, in a social defeat model, an adult male Fischer 344 rat (the “intruder”) was introduced in the home cage of a Long-Evans retired male breeder…

There is a positive correlation between the rate of ice cream an individual consumes and the rate of drowning deaths. The are many factors to this correlation. Each individual may vary so for my experiment I decided to get a sample of the population. My sample will only consist of males and females between the age of 13-19 in a local neighborhood. The independent variable will be the consumption of ice cream. The amount of time spent after consuming X amount of ice cream can also be a…
In these camps “the death rates were so high, from malnutrition, typhus and exhaustion that the disposal of corpses became a serious problem.” (THE CAMPS) The treatment in transporting and caring for the victims is probably one of the main factors in the dehumanization of people during Holocaust. The victims were treated inferior simply because of their nationality. The Nazi’s made it a point to degrade these people in every way possible by taking away their rights and free will.…
three different rats, and having all test subjects being exposed to four different situations. The first rat was used as the control subject, setting its outcomes from the experiments as the normal responses for a healthy individual rat. The first experiment was conducted to determine the normal metabolic rate for each rat. The control rat had a metabolic rate of 1465ml O2/kg/hr. This number will be compared to following numbers from the remaining three experiments. In experiment two rat #1 was…
gerbils, guinea pigs, rats, mice, and chinchillas, and I tried to make that a bigger selling point than it actually is. There isn't nearly as much to know about them as there is, say, eyelash crested geckos. Or running a fucking fish tank. Six months ago, I was a bright and cheery employee, who genuinely enjoyed my job. The customers slowly beat that out of me. The worst was about two or three months in, when we were running a coupon for five dollars off a…
