Povc Disease
Survey Launched
Austin — Trichomoniasis
— a six-dollar word that
sometimes spells trouble for
Texas doves.
Trichomoniasis-,<iS paused
by a small protozoan which
lives in the upper digestive
tract of pigeons, doves and
chickens. It may exist in both
lethal and non-lethal strains.
Commonly called frounce
or canker disease, it can
drastically reduce a bird
population because it destroys
nestlings as well as adults and
juveniles.
Parks and'Wildlife Depart-
ment biologists have initiated a
statewide dove survey in an
attempt to determine the
incidence of the organism
causing trichomoniases among
Texas doves. .
Eight Northcentral Texas
counties in the Cross Timbers
and four in the Rolling Plains
were sampled during the first
week of August and the birds
looked good, according to Bill
Russ of the Statewide dove
research project.
“Of the 123 birda we
examined," said Russ, “only
five adults were carrying the
organism."
Russ pointed out that two
of the five birds were found in
one county of the Rolling Plains
and the remaining three in two
Cross Timbers counties.
the already-sampled Cross
Timbers proved to have {
relatively clean bill of health,
Russ expressed some concern
over the disease reports from
field gioiogists throughout Blast
Texas and in South Texas.

FISH TH‘ SHADY SPOTS
With the exception of sharks, fish have no eyelids to
close. Thus, the fact that fish usually prefer shade is
ample proof that dir * "untight bothers them. This helps
explain why during & immer when sun rays strike the
water at a more dire< angle the best fishing invariably
occurs in early morning, late evening or night. When
fishing the daylight hours on warm sunny days, remem-
ber when you seek relief from the sun fish are probably
doing the same. Look for them in places the sunlight
can’t reach.
