Title: Australian Mammals : Biology and Captive Management
Description: Australian Mammals: Biology and Captive Management is a complete guide to the husbandry of all groups of Australian mammals. This second edition has been updated based on the latest research, bringing together current knowledge of the biology and behaviour of each species in captive situations and providing guidance for hand rearing. It covers advances from the last 20 years, including developments in assisted breeding, genetic techniques, updated taxonomy and the importance of Australian mammal welfare, both physical and mental. Written in collaboration with experts in captive management, ecology and veterinary science, chapters are presented for each taxonomic group of Australian mammals. Each chapter covers animal welfare, natural history, housing requirements, general husbandry, feeding requirements, handling and transport, health requirements, behaviour, breeding and artificial rearing. Australian Mammals provides practical guidance for zookeepers, veterinarians, zoologists, researchers and students.
