Even bird embryos are sensitive to odors. If domestic fowl embryos were exposed to odors 1 day before hatching (including dichloroethane, formic acid, cineole, and amyl acetate) they responded with increased heart rate, beak clapping, and head shaking to the first three compounds. Amyl acetate had inconsistent results. Blocking the nostrils with wax eliminated the responses (Tolhurst and Vince, 1976). 

Information pertaining to the occurrence of cresols in surface waters was limited. STORET (1989) and the CLAPS (1988) contained no records for o-cresol in ambient surface water. o-Cresol was detected in freshwater samples from Spirit Lake, Washington, on August 7, 1980 and from South Fork Castle Lake and Smith Creek, Washington, on September 11, 1980 at unreported concentrations (McKnight et al. 1982). The presence of cresols was attributed to the Mount St. Helens eruption on May 18, 1980 (McKnight et al. 1982). Whether or not the cresols originated from wood fires or the actual eruption was not clarified.
