Claims
Species: Rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus)Disorder: Delta 9-tetrahydrocannabinol seizureSummary: Fish et al. (1981): "Delta 9-Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the major psychoactive ingredient of marijuana, causes nonfatal convulsions in rabbits of a closed colony of New Zealand White rabbits (Uaz: NZW). The convulsive phenotype appears to be associated with homozygous expression of a single autosomal recessive gene with full penetrance."
