Five-minute rat exposure increased anxiety-like behavior. (A,B) Mean ± SEM is plotted for freezing duration and frequency. Mice exposed to a rat for 5 min froze for longer (A) and more often (B) than mice exposed to an empty cage (control mice). (C,D) Mean ± SEM for activity in the elevated plus maze. Predator-stressed mice also spent less time in the open arms (C) and entered the open arms less often (D) than control mice.
