Erik Verrynne, [22 Jan 2025 at 4:46:13 PM]: Good afternoon. Is anyone using BAM on adult steenbok and duiker? At what dosages? They need to be kept under for about 40-60 mins. Cheers in advance. Cobus Raath, [22 Jan 2025 at 5:01:17 PM]: Hi Erik, I use it often in red duiker at 0,1ml per 10 kg. If it’s going to be a long procedure, you can add ketamine at 0,5 mg per kg, but they are deep with BAM. Erik Verrynne, [22 Jan 2025 at 6:13:05 PM]: Thanks, Cobus. How long do they take to go down? Will ketamine speed up the process? Cobus Raath, [22 Jan 2025 at 6:52:24 PM]: They become ataxic pretty quickly, 4 minutes as a rule, then go nowhere and then down within 5-6 minutes. Ketamine will speed it up. I leave them once down, if I am comfortable with the posture (as handling stimulates them), and only work on them from 10 minutes after darting. Erik Verrynne, [22 Jan 2025 Thanks, Cobus
