Rapid Review of Small Exotic Animal Medicine & Husbandry

More and more different kinds of pets are being kept, and especially exotic kinds. Veterinary practices also have to deal with this, because these exotic animals can become ill.
This book provides a good overview of many different animal species that are being kept, both the common and the more exotic ones. The book is divided into four sections: small mammals, birds, reptiles and amphibians, and (ornamental) fish. First the most important aspects of the husbandry and medicine of each animal group are discussed. 400 clinical cases are included, illustrated with colour photos, plus questions that summarize key points per animal species.
The book is a bundling of information on symptoms, treatments and prognoses.

This Rapid Review is useful for veterinary practitioners, but also for other professionals that keep and care for these animals. The book can also be used by college students.
