Vivisection
Experiments on rabbits. Biliary fistula established. The animals then
submitted to electric stimulations.

Made experiments on dogs and monkeys. After the destruction of their
frontal lobes, dogs showed no signs of impaired intellect, but
disturbances were produced in their hind quarters. They turned round in
the direction of the lesion, and a cat-like bending of the spine took
place. Sometimes during the first weeks the dogs held their heads down,
could scarcely seize their meat; monkeys lost their power of springing,
but their intelligence remained unimpaired. Also experimented with
electricity on the exposed muscles.--_Berl. Akad. Sitzungsber_, 1882, p.
36.
