As exotic pet ownership continues to rise globally, veterinary professionals require specialized expertise in recognizing normal and abnormal behaviors across avian, reptilian, and small mammal species. This authoritative resource bridges the gap between traditional companion animal behavioral medicine and the unique requirements of exotic species, offering evidence-based approaches to behavioral assessment, environmental enrichment, and therapeutic intervention. The text delivers in-depth coverage of species-specific behavioral repertoires, including communication patterns, social structures, reproductive behaviors, and stress responses. Readers will gain practical insights into identifying behavioral disorders, implementing behavior modification protocols, and educating clients on proper husbandry practices that promote psychological well-being. Each section addresses the anatomical, physiological, and evolutionary factors that influence behavior, enabling practitioners to make informed clinical decisions when treating behavioral problems in exotic patients. Written by leading experts in exotic animal medicine and veterinary behavior, this resource combines current scientific research with clinical experience to provide actionable guidance for daily practice. The book emphasizes the critical connection between appropriate environmental management and behavioral health, equipping veterinarians with the tools needed to improve outcomes and enhance the human-animal bond in exotic pet ownership.
