The influence of chemical cues from conspecifics on female bank voles Clethrionomys glareolus (Schreber, 1780) activity was investigated in a 10 min behavioural test. The role of the main olfactory and vomeronasal systems in mediating chemicals which alter female activity was also studied. Total activity scored higher in females exposed to the scent of dominant male or adult male urine. The odour...
Prey individuals representing the bank vole Clethrionomys glareolus and the field vole Microtus agrestis were presented in pairs to male and female least weasels Mustela nivalis Linnaeus, 1766 in the laboratory. The voles were placed in two randomly selected boxes out of 8 boxes, which were connected to an arena housing the weasel. For each trial we recorded the finding, killing and eating order of...
We investigated the reaction of bank voles Clethrionomys glareolus (Schreber, 1780) to odors of conspecific individuals and that of wood mice Apodemus sylvaticus (Linnaeus, 1758) in a mature forest in central Poland (52°20'N, 27°25'E). Our results show no difference in catching bank voles in traps using conspecific or wood mouse odors as bait.
