Wild rats were so stressed that they had to use the older dorsal medial. Nucleus dmnx to respond, which may be good for reptiles but lethal for mammals. Lab rats mounted a good stress response by using the nucleus ambiguus to withdrawal (inhibit) vagal activity and increase sympathetic activity; Wild rats essentially peeled back an older layer of the ans too much!
