摘要
Between 1998 and 2008, 621 Steller sea lions (Eumetopias jubatus, SSL) were captured underwater by SCUBA divers and anesthetized with isoflurane (n = 602) or sevoflurane (n = 19). We found significantly faster induction time ((X) over bar +/- SD) for sevoflurane (11 +/- 6 min) compared to isoflurane (14 +/- 6 min), as well as an interaction between anesthetists using the isoflurane protocol. Severe hypothermia with temperatures <35 degrees C were measured in 22% of all animals, and had significant associations with month, length of anesthesia, and sex. Mortality rate was low (0.33%). We conclude that both isoflurane and sevoflurane anesthesia were effective for field anesthesia to safely handle and sample SSL.
