The combination of tiletamine HCl and zolazepam HCl has been used on many species of wild mammals. Short induction time, low dosage, satisfactory safety margins, relatively constant immobilization time, and smooth recovery are benefits reported. This combination (Zoletil 100) was used during a study on behavioural ecology of the crested porcupine (Hystrix cristata) in a Mediterranean coastal area (Maremma Regional Park, Tuscany, Italy). We used this mixture 42 times on 31 individuals. Mean adult dose was (+/- SE) 7.24 +/- 0.37 mg/kg (74.0 +/- 3.0 mg/individual). Average adult induction time was 5.3 min (+/- 1.1) and average adult immobilization time was 22.6 min (+/- 6.0). One adult male porcupine died after chemical restraints. The use of tiletamine-zolazepam seems adequate for chemical immobilization of crested porcupines under field conditions, mainly because of its short induction time, small volume to be injected and wide safety margin.
盐酸替来他明和盐酸唑拉西泮的组合已用于多种野生哺乳动物。据报道，其具有诱导时间短、剂量低、安全范围令人满意、固定时间相对恒定以及恢复平稳等优点。在对意大利托斯卡纳沿海地区（马雷马地区公园）的冠豪猪（Hystrix cristata）进行行为生态学研究期间，使用了这种组合（Zoletil 100）。我们在31只个体上使用了这种混合物42次。成年个体的平均剂量为（±标准误）7.24±0.37毫克/千克（74.0±3.0毫克/个体）。成年个体的平均诱导时间为5.3分钟（±1.1），平均固定时间为22.6分钟（±6.0）。一只成年雄性豪猪在化学保定后死亡。在野外条件下，替来他明-唑拉西泮的使用似乎足以对冠豪猪进行化学固定，主要是因为其诱导时间短、注射体积小且安全范围宽。
