Immobilization of muskoxen (Ovibos moschatus) with etorphine and xylazine.

Arnoldus Schytte Blix1, Hans Lian, John Ness.   

Abstract

One hundred and thirty three "wild" muskoxen, 81 of which of known body mass, were successfully immobilized using etorphine (M99), and xylazine (Rompun®), delivered by use of a dart gun. A dose of 0.05 mg/kg M99, supplemented by 0.15 mg/kg Rompun was found to be very effective. This dose is much higher than currently recommended e.g. by Handbook of Wildlife Chemical Immobilization.
