摘要

在動物園及繁殖圈養中心，常以傳統吹箭方式為整群動物做治療或打疫苗，但常因注射時群體動物過於擁擠且形態相似，致使無法辨鼓動物是否已施打過，而造成重複注射或遺漏的情形。台北市立動物園動物醫療中心，經由多次改良與兩年試驗結果，研發出標記式吹箭可於注射動物後自動標記顏色於動物身上，同時亦能作為藥物是否完全注入之指標。經多次使用證實，標認式吹箭能成功且有效率的做為野生動物及群體動物的醫療注射工具。

As widely recognized, it is extremely difficult to confirm that individual animals have been successfully treated using traditional blowdart treatment methods, particularly when the animal groups are large and crowded, or when the animals' external morphologies closely resemble each other. Misidentification has therefore become the primary cause of double treatment or lack of treatment of single individuals. To resolve this problem, we ran a two-year experiment in a modified traditional blowdart treatment at the Animal Medical Center of Taipei Zoo. This experiment focused mainly on developing the auto-marking blowdart as a substitute for the conventional blowdart, and applying the auto-marking system to indicate completion of treatment. Experimental results demonstrate that the auto-marking blowdart can be applied successfully and efficiently in wildlife group medical treatments.
