Adrenocortical function in cane toads from different environments

The adrenocortical function of cane toads (Rhinella marina) exposed to different experimental procedures, as well as captured from different environments, was assessed by challenging the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis. It was found that restriction stress as well as cannulation increased...
