The Sixth Edition of Harkness and Wagner’s Biology and Medicine of Rabbits and Rodents provides a thorough update to the classic reference on small mammal health and husbandry, now with full-color clinical photographs throughout.
Part of ACLAM’s series of laboratory animal books, the book is a comprehensive, practical guide to caring for rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, gerbils, mice, rats, and chinchillas.
Emphasizing biology, contemporary husbandry, diagnostics and clinical procedures, clinical signs, and diseases and conditions, the book is equally useful in the research, companion animal practice, or food animal setting.
New topics for the Sixth Edition include environmental monitoring for rodent health assessments, behavioral management considerations for optimizing animal health, enhanced pain assessment approaches, as well as considerations for creating a welfare-friendly small mammal practice.
