Abstract
The system includes a capsule member made from a material which is not dissolvable in water but is dissolvable in the digestive fluids of a predator species. The capsule contains a material which, following ingestion by a predator (game/sport) species, results in death of the predator species. A connecting member is secured to the capsule, and is adapted to be secured to a prey (bait) species such that when the prey species is released in a body of water, such as a lake, in the vicinity of the predator species, the predator species is likely to consume the prey species along with the capsule and shortly thereafter dies, thereby reducing the number of predator species.
Claims12
A system for controlling the number of a selected population of a fish/animal species in a given aqueous environment, comprising:
- a capsule member which includes material which, following ingestion by a member of the selected population species, results in death of said selected species member, wherein the capsule is made from a material which dissolves in the digestive fluids of said selected population species and wherein the capsule is secured to a prey species which is released into the aqueous environment for ingestion by said selected population species;
- and
- a connecting element for securing the capsule to the prey species.
A system for controlling the number of a selected population of fish/animal species in a given aqueous environment, comprising:
- a combination of a prey species wherein said prey species is not a human species and an attached capsule member which includes material which, following ingestion by a member of the selected population species, results in death of said selected species member, wherein the capsule is made from a material which dissolves in the digestive fluids of said selected population species, wherein the capsule is secured to the prey species which is released into the aqueous environment for ingestion by said selected population fish/animal species.
