摘　　要：研究发现许多鸟类具有发育良好的嗅觉系统,但气味是否影响鸟类取食行为的研究报道较少。本研究开展了长尾林鸮(Strix uralensis)、金雕(Aquila chrysaetos)、家犬和家猫的粪便气味以及香水和香烟的气味对虎皮鹦鹉(Melopsittacus undulates)取食行为影响的比较研究。研究发现,虎皮鹦鹉在香水气味下的取食意图显著低于长尾林鸮粪便气味和无气味对照;在金雕粪便、猫粪便、香水及香烟气味下的取食频次显著低于无气味对照,同时香水及香烟气味下的取食频次显著低于长尾林鸮粪便气味,说明虎皮鹦鹉可能通过气味识别潜在的风险,进而调整取食行为。[Objective]The sense of smell of most birds has been considered to be degraded,although some bird species have well-developed olfactory organs.While,a few studies reported whether odors can affect the feeding behavior of birds.Here,we aimed to test whether feeding behavior of Budgerigars(Melopsittacus undulates)can be affected by six odors,including feces of Ural Owl(Strix uralensis),feces of Golden Eagle(Aquila chrysaetos),feces of domestic dog and feces of domestic cat,as well as perfume and cigarettes.[Method]Before the experiment,one of those six odor sources was placed on the lower layer of the double-layer food box(custom-made,with 225 air vents between the layers),and seeds were placed on the upper layer.A Budgerigar(starvation treatment for 4 hours)was individually transferred to an observation cage.After a 5 minutes,a double-layer food box was placed in the observation cage,and then we observed the behaviors of the target Budgerigar for 15 minutes.In addition,an odorless control group was established at the same time.Each bird received all 7 types of odor experiments,while the order of treatments was random.During observation period,we recorded the distance between the Budgerigar and the food box,and counted the number of feeding times of Budgerigar.The cumulative link mixed model with logit-link function was used to analyze the feeding willingness(whether closed to the food box)(Fig.1)and feeding level of Budgerigars(low level,the feeding frequency was 0;medium level,the feeding frequency was between 1﹣10;high level,the feeding frequency was>10)under different odors.In the models,treatment and sex were treated as fixed terms and ID was a random term.If there was a significant effect of treatment,we further performed post hoc pairwise comparisons and used false discovery rate control to adjust P values.[Results]There were significant differences in the feeding intentions and feeding level of Budgerigars under different odor exposures.Except the feeding intention under the odor of perfume was significan
