Clinical Anatomy and Physiology of Exotic Species bridges the gap between the clinical application of the anatomy and physiology of commonly-encountered exotic species and veterinary treatment. The first in-depth textbook of its kind, this resource deals solely with the comparative anatomy and physiology of exotic species — small mammals, reptiles, and birds. For these commonly encountered species, it highlights clinical considerations for veterinary treatment. The book is heavily illustrated with clear line diagrams, radiographs, and color illustrations, explaining clearly the functioning of exotic species.
- The first textbook to provide comprehensive coverage of the comparative anatomy and physiology of exotic species.
- Written specifically to give the veterinary practitioner a better understanding of the functioning of exotic species.
- Profusely illustrated with clear line diagrams, radiographs, and color plates.
