Effect of Oxytropis species consumption on sheep forage preference in northeastern Qing‐tibetan Plateau
Poisonous Oxytropis species are the most widespread and most harmful poisonous plants in the plateau.Specially, O.K ansuensis Bge (O.K.B ) is regarded as the typical plateau species by many researchers because of being confined in the plateau (ZHAOYI‐Zhi 1992).Oxytropis species poisoning causes neurological disturbances affecting appetite (SHIZHI‐Cheng 1996).The aim of this study was to determine the amount of O.K.B consumed by sheep through the spring and into the early summer, as other forage progressed from breaking dormancy to rapid growth.Our second objective was to compare the amount of O.K.B consumption between the sheep with a history of eating Oxytropis and the group not eating, then to determine if the former would prefer the forage.
