Raptor medicine is a specialty within the clinical science of avian medicine, and embodies age-old traditions of medical management, coupled with current and more effective techniques. This book offers a state-of-the-art contribution to the field of raptor medicine and biology.
Raptor medicine is a specialty within the rapidly advancing clinical science of avian medicine. It embodies age-old traditions of medical management, handed down for thousands of years by the practitioners of the art of falconry, coupled with current and more effective techniques. Relatively few individuals throughout the world practice both falconry and the medical arts associated with keeping captive raptors healthy. "Raptor Biomedicine" presents the research and findings of these individuals. "Raptor Biomedicine" offers a resource to all those associated with the care and conservation of raptors. Falconers and managers of captive birds should gain useful information that aims to promote the understanding and practice of preventive medicine, and field biologists, veterinarians, and rehabilitators should acquire new perspectives on disease and environmental factors that determine the survival of casualty birds and influence population dynamics of wild raptors. Anyone concerned with the welfare of raptors, whether in the wild or in captivity, should benefit from this volume.
