The Effect of High-Voltage Power Lines on Magnetic Orientation of Domestic Dogs

Research RF Safe Research Library Jan 1, 2025

This animal behavioral study observed 36 domestic dogs to assess whether magnetic fields from high-voltage power lines influence dogs' geomagnetic alignment behavior. Dogs showed bimodal alignment under control conditions and under north-south oriented power lines, but alignment became trimodal under east-west oriented lines with statistically significant differences versus control. The authors interpret these findings as indicating that power-line-related fields can alter orientation behavior and frame this as supporting concern about biological effects of EMF exposure.
