The Relationship Between Plasma Steroid Hormone Concentrations and the Reproductive Cycle of the Northern Pacific Rattlesnake, Crotalus oreganus

To gain a better understanding of the role of steroid hormones in vertebrate reproduction, we quantified steroid hormone concentrations in a free ranging population of the Northern Pacific rattlesnake, Crotalus oreganus. Plasma steroid hormone concentrations were quantified for both male and female...
