摘要: Adult specimens of several rattlesnake species which struck and envenomated a mouse or did not have an opportunity to strike were allowed choose between one manually killed by the experimenter. Only rattlesnakes that made choice, was selected most frequently. Odor cues emanating from and/or remembrance taste odor briefly experienced during probably mediated eventual selection mouse, may represent important components stimulus configuration releasing swallowing once dead prey are located.
