Snow leopard

In black-tailed deer, Odocoikus hemionus columbianus, fecal odors of sympatric predators (coyote, C. latrans, and mountain lion, Fdis concolor) in vials next to food pellets inhibited feeding, while those of allopatric predators (lion, Fdis leo, snow leopard, Uncia uncia) do not, or very little (Miiller-Schwarze, 1972 Fig. 12.3). Note that mammals discriminate between the odors of sym- and allopatric predators, while fish and rattlesnakes do not (pp. 359 and 364). Free-ranging adult female wapiti, Cervus elaphus canadensis, respond to the odors of dog urine, and cougar and wolf feces (presented as water slurry) with increased heart rates. It was concluded that the main effect of predator odors may be for assessing the risk of predation (Chabot etal, 1996). [Pg.368]

Today, color effects for double face such as snow top , in which the dyed hair is brushed with special reductive chemicals to bleach it, are in fashion. Finally, it is also usual to print some lamb- or woolskins to imitate more valuable furs. Imitations are produced not only with sheep or lambskin but with rabbitskin, too. These various starting materials may be stencilled to resemble leopard or other spotted furs. [Pg.449]
