Fig. 11. Whole spinal cord re-crush at the spinomedullary level (SML) of fish that
had recovered C-starts, full equilibrium and targeted feeding resulted
in the loss of these behaviors. Photographs were taken from the side of the
aquarium. (A) Goldfish 107, 200 days postoperatively. This fish was upright,
was able to feed from the surface and displayed C-starts in response to
the vibratory stimulus. (B) After spinal cord re-crush at the SML, this fish
was on its side and was unable to target food from the water surface. In
addition, vibratory stimuli did not elicit C-starts. This fish was 11
cm in body length.
