> I don't know if you've been following this newsgroup but there was an
extensive discussion in February about animal models. You might want to
check the bionet archives. Secondly, there was an excellent paper given
at the SOT Meeting this past March by A. Fairbrother entitled "Critical
Attributes of Animal Models Used to Evaluate Ecotoxicologic Effects/Risks
in Wildlife". You might want to do a literature search with Fairbrother
as an Author search. Anne (Ibelieve) Fairbrother is at Oregon State
university, Corvallis, Oregon.
