The Need for Supplementary Dietary Fat by Breeding Mink Fed Rations Containing Codfish Products1

D. W. Friend and E. W. Crampton

Department of Nutrition, Macdonald College (McGill University), Province of Quebec, Canada

In an experiment in which rations containing a high proportion of codfish products were fed to breeding mink, the addition of 8% of hydrogenated animal fat increased significantly the number of successfully mated mink which whelped. It was concluded that the observed effect was the result of an improved caloric intake.

1 Research conducted in cooperation with the Department of Mines and Resources, Government of Newfoundland, and supported by a grant from the Canada Department of Agriculture for extramural research.

Manuscript received 21 November 1960.
