Can anyone explain more about this "barcode"? Is it a unique code that is arrived at for each species tested, or does it vary slightly between individuals, or even between tests of the same individual? Could it be used to distinguish individuals, e.g. to count how many individuals contributed to a pile of shed feathers? Peter Shute |
