Gadgets are bad for your sex lifeRadio collars are a bad bad idea....The bbc reported that in Norfolk a study of vole movement has gone wrong..
The study was carried out on some 38 Voles were the voles each had a hi-tech radio transmitter (a gadget to you and me) around the poor little voles neck. The friendly scientist people had attached these collars to monitor the vast and varried movements made by vales.Oxford's WCRU know as The wild life conservation research unit had been studying the size of the vole population in both Norfolk and Wiltshire. A doctor Tom Moorhouse and Professor David Macdonald noticed a almost 1 in 2 decline in females born at the Norfolk site. The study found that the shift in the sex ratio could be caused by the stress of wearing the collars.
