Abstract

Comparisons were made between hematologic measurements of shot and box-trapped cottontail rabbits (Sylvilagus floridanus). Trapped rabbits had significantly (P < 0.001) higher serum corticoid levels and segmented neutrophil percentages and significantly (P < 0.001) lower lymphocyte percentages than did shot rabbits. Trapped rabbits also had significantly (P < 0.05) higher packed cell volumes and blood urea nitrogen values than did shot rabbits.
