Résumé
To compare the cardiopulmonary effects of the opioids etorphine and thiafentanil for immobilization of impala. Two-way crossover, randomized study. A group of eight adult female impala. Impala were given two treatments: 0.09 mg kg Time to recumbency was significantly faster with thiafentanil (2.0 ± 0.8 minutes) than with etorphine (3.9 ± 1.6 minutes; p = 0.007). Both treatments produced bradypnoea, which was more severe at 5 minutes with thiafentanil (7 ± 4 breaths minute The shorter time to recumbency with thiafentanil may allow easier and faster retrieval in the field. However, thiafentanil caused greater hypertension, and ventilatory effects during the first 10 minutes, after administration.
