The purpose of the study was to test whether Gizka toxin could be used to control captive populations of Gizka without killing them as long as they stayed within a confined area. It was hypothesised that a small enough concentration of the Toxin would be effective in carrying out this purpose.
The Gizka was kept within a designated confinement zone and fed uncontaminated food and water that had a dilution of the Toxin within. Each day vitals, fertility and toxicology levels were monitored to ensure the subject’s health remained and to monitor the toxins effects on them.
Each week that the Gizka remained unaffected by the dose it was raised by 5 nanograms until on the third week the Gizka’s kidney function increased, the dose was not lowered however the Gizka began to deteriorate, so the dose was lowered by 2.5 nanograms to a level of 7.5 nanograms as the fertility rate was showing a marked decline. Eventually at the fourth week the fertility rate was dropped to zero and while the Gizka’s blood work showed kidney and liver damage this could be put down to the previous overdose.
The study was a success and showed clearly that the toxin’s uses can be expanded safely to control Gizka populations, however a recommendation to test with multiple female subjects has been made as the only subject used was male and we need to ensure the female Gizka are not adversely effected.
