| Format | PDF E-Book File Size: Varies Category: Wildlife Medicine & Avian Veterinary Medicine Specialty: Infectious Diseases, Wildlife Health, Avian Medicine DESCRIPTION ----------- Infectious Diseases of Wild Birds stands as an essential comprehensive reference for veterinary professionals working at the critical intersection of wildlife health, conservation medicine, and disease surveillance. This authoritative text provides in-depth coverage of bacterial, viral, fungal, and parasitic diseases affecting free-ranging avian populations worldwide, with particular emphasis on disease ecology, epidemiology, pathogenesis, and the implications for both wildlife conservation and public health. The book addresses the unique challenges of diagnosing and managing infectious diseases in wild bird populations, including field investigation techniques, sample collection protocols, and interpretation of diagnostic findings in non-domestic species. Written by leading experts in wildlife disease and avian medicine, this resource bridges the gap between traditional veterinary medicine and the specialized field of wildlife health management. It explores emerging infectious diseases, zoonotic threats, and the role of wild birds as sentinels for environmental health and disease transmission. The text integrates current research findings with practical clinical applications, making it invaluable for both field work and laboratory diagnostics. This comprehensive volume serves as both a clinical reference and an educational tool, offering detailed species-specific information alongside broader principles of disease management in free-ranging populations. With its focus on evidence-based approaches and contemporary challenges including climate change impacts on disease distribution and antimicrobial resistance in wildlife, this book represents an indispensable resource for anyone involved in wild bird health, rehabilitation, or conservation.
