      Devant l'afflux croissant des nouveaux animaux de compagnie en consultation vétérinaire, le praticien voit ses compétences cliniques sollicitées à propos d'espèces très variées et encore peu connues. Il doit ainsi redoubler de vigilance pour recueillir et interpréter une symptomatologie souvent atypique, parfois fruste. Comprendre le comportement propre à chaque espèce est dès lors essentiel pour l'examen clinique. Cet ouvrage de synthèse vient combler un manque cruel dans la bibliothèque des vétérinaires, en faisant le point sur le comportement de nombreuses espèces de NAC : • lapin • perroquets • reptiles • furet • cochon d'Inde • rat • gerbille • hamster • chinchilla • fennec • hérisson • chien de prairie • opossum • phalanger volant Pour chacune de ces espèces, l'ouvrage présente : • tous les comportements normaux et anormaux, associés aux besoins physiologiques (alimentaire, sexuel, locomoteur, toilettage) et aux interactions sociales (communication, jeux, défense et agressivité) ; • tous les aspects corrélés à la captivité, en mettant l'accent sur les problèmes fréquents associés à la pseudo-domestication (sommeil, nutrition, reproduction, logement, adoption, soins à administrer) ; • les implications médicales lors de comportement anormal, développées de manière complète et détaillée, ce qui sera une aide précieuse pour l'orientation diagnostique. Très pratique, ce guide apporte nombre d'astuces qui seront autant de services rendus au cours d'une consultation et de réponses fiables aux questions des propriétaires. • abondante iconographie couleur. • nombreux encadrés aide-mémoire : signes de souffrance, hospitalisation, comportement agressif, postures et vocalises, apprentissage du bac à litière et méthodes de modifications comportementales, etc. • fiches-conseil pour les propriétaires : nutrition, conditions d'élevage, hygiène, risques, soins préventifs.
