词条 | Berserk llama syndrome |
释义 |
The condition is a result of the llama imprinting on its human handlers to such a degree that it considers them to be fellow llamas.[3] Imprinting can be caused by bottle feeding and by isolation from other llamas.[1] Adult male inter-llama interaction can be rough, including chest-ramming and biting, and they are strongly territorial. Male llamas suffering from this condition become dangerous when this behavior is directed toward humans and they usually have to be euthanised. Female llamas can also suffer from berserk llama syndrome but their behavior is usually limited to spitting and difficult handling.[3] Berserk llama syndrome can be prevented in males through castration before puberty.[4] References1. ^1 {{cite web| url=http://www.llamapaedia.com/problems/bms.html | title=Berserk Male Syndrome| publisher=Llamapaedia.com (via the Internet Archive)| date= 1997-09-21| accessdate=2007-06-29 |archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20070629072447/http://www.llamapaedia.com/problems/bms.html |archivedate = 2007-06-29}} {{veterinary-med-stub}}2. ^{{cite web| url=http://home.att.net/~lostcreekllamas/mta.html| title=Problematic behavior in llamas and misdirected territorial aggression| publisher=Lost Creek Llamas| accessdate=2007-10-16| deadurl=yes| archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20071101223234/http://home.att.net/~lostcreekllamas/mta.html| archivedate=2007-11-01| df=}} 3. ^1 {{cite web| url=http://stason.org/TULARC/animals/alpaca-llama/20-What-is-Berserk-Male-Syndrome-or-Can-llamas-or-alpacas-b.html| title=20 What is Berserk Male Syndrome?| date=2007-09-11| accessdate=2007-10-16| publisher=Stason.org}} 4. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.kgw.com/news-local/stories/kgw_091307_animals_beserk_llama_attacks_.ce68f056.html |title=Berserk llama attacks woman in Central Oregon |date=2007-09-13 |accessdate=2007-10-16 |publisher=Associated Press |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20071031192239/http://www.kgw.com/news-local/stories/kgw_091307_animals_beserk_llama_attacks_.ce68f056.html |archivedate=2007-10-31 |deadurl=yes |df= }} 3 : Mammal diseases|Camelids|Syndromes in animals |
