Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Tulane Studies in Zoology and Botany, Vol. 27: June 11, 1989
A variety of baits were tested early in the study to determine if one bait type was more effective than Others. Chicken parts, chicken livers, various types of canned cat food, canned sar dines, canned herring, and native mol luscs (snails and mussels ground or sliced and placed in a porous bait pouch) were compared. Canned her ring and native molluscs appeared to be the least effective attractants. Because there were no observable differences in trap-capture rates between the other types of baits, canned sardines were used predominantly during the major ity of the study because of convenience, cost and relative effectiveness.
