A guide to the care and treatment of deer for veterinary professionals
Deer Veterinary Medicine is an essential reference for veterinary professionals preparing for deer encounters. Rooted in extensive field experience, the contributions from a range of authors provide details of common conditions across multiple deer species and the knowledge required by the veterinary professionals who deal with them. The book considers the different contexts where deer are encountered, including wild populations, and deer held in captivity (as farm, park and zoo collections).
The chapters topics range from handling and sedating deer through to nutrition and postmortem examination and pathology. They cover key body systems including the gut, nervous, ocular and respiratory systems, and the skin.
Deer Veterinary Medicine readers will also find:
Edited by the past president of the British Deer Veterinary Association (BDVA) this book is a fitting successor to Management and Diseases of Deer: A Handbook for Veterinary Surgeons, last published in 1994 by the Veterinary Deer Society (now the BDVA). Synthesizing key contributions by a range of experts from Europe and the US, the new Deer Veterinary Medicine is ideal for veterinarians, veterinary surgeons and veterinary students, as well as readers interested in the management of captive and wild deer.
Aiden P. Foster, PhD is past president of the BDVA and an honorary senior lecturer at the University of Bristol, UK, having spent his career working in academia and the civil service. His work has focused on veterinary dermatology (including livestock), publishing (as a journal editor and author) and disease surveillance in livestock and wildlife, including deer.

Systemvoraussetzungen:
Das Dateiformat PDF zeigt auf jeder Hardware eine Buchseite stets identisch an. Daher ist eine PDF auch für ein komplexes Layout geeignet, wie es bei Lehr- und Fachbüchern verwendet wird (Bilder, Tabellen, Spalten, Fußnoten). Bei kleinen Displays von E-Readern oder Smartphones sind PDF leider eher nervig, weil zu viel Scrollen notwendig ist. Mit Adobe-DRM wird hier ein „harter” Kopierschutz verwendet. Wenn die notwendigen Voraussetzungen nicht vorliegen, können Sie das E-Book leider nicht öffnen. Daher müssen Sie bereits vor dem Download Ihre Lese-Hardware vorbereiten.
Bitte beachten Sie: Wir empfehlen Ihnen unbedingt nach Installation der Lese-Software diese mit Ihrer persönlichen Adobe-ID zu autorisieren!
