Description
Hair-raising patients and fascinating wildlife science in a globe-trotting insight into veterinary life and ecology from pioneering animal surgeon Dr Romain Pizzi. From a broken-legged tarantula and a hippo with toothache, to cleaning narwhal teeth and sedating a rhino: learn about catching, examining, and choosing treatments for varied anatomies and complaints. From reptiles and arachnids; to mammals and marsupials: fact-packed chapters offer insight into treating amazing and endangered species, great and small. Born in South Africa and now living in Scotland, Dr Pizzi is a Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons Recognised Specialist in Zoo and Wildlife Medicine. A treat for animal lover’s and scientists alike, discover intriguing animal facts, such as that walruses have a tendency to suffocate themselves under anaesthetic, that turtles are affected by magnetic fields, and that zebras dark stripes radiate heat on hot days.
