Abstract

Three male Carneaux pigeons (one control, two experimental) were trained to a multiple FR-60 FI-15 schedule of reinforcement. After relative behavioral stability was obtained, the experimental animals were exposed 6 hours a day for 20 weeks to mercury vapor at a concentration level of 0.1 mg/m3. No behavioral, histological, or gross signs of mercurialism were noted.
