Abstract

Prednisolone acetate was administered in deers sedated with xylazine hydrochloride. Sleeping time in deers given prednisolone after xylazine sedation was shortened a little in Red deers, approximately one half in Elk and Sika deers comparing with deers sedated with xylazine alone. It was proved that prednisolone acetate shortened the recovery time of deers sedated with xylazine hydrochloride.
