520 3 _aThis book was written for veterinarians, scientists, wildlife officials, students and crocodile farmers. The gathered data was based on years of work with farmed Nile crocodiles, some with wild and wild-caught African dwarf crocodiles in the Congo Republic, as well as on information from available literature. This book is a comprehensive reference on the biology, management and health of crocodiles, alligators and gharials. Emphasis is on diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of diseases as these occur on crocodile farms; clinical aspects of disease are also discussed. Photographs depicting various cases and conditions have been compiled. Anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, behaviour, nutrition, rearing, breeding, slaughter and welfare are also covered.
