$IIguana Iguana$I is based on $IIguanas: A Guide to Their Biology and Captive Care.$I This edition was improved by a 35% increase in page count, the addition of 16 new pages of color photos, and a
redesigned and expanded text to make it more user-friendly. An entirely new section was added to this edition which includes information on scoliosis and kyphoscoliosis; an admonition against purposeful cooling to
achieve restraint; and material on normal physiologic values, sources of reptile-related products, and fluid therapy, including intramedullary (intraosseous). This expanded edition, which is devoted exclusively to the
green iguana, includes information on reproduction and captive breeding; normal and abnormal behavior; safe and effective methods of restraint; prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of nutrition-related diseases; the
development of metabolic bone disease; infectious diseases and non-infectious conditions; parasitism; ophthalmic disorders; miscellaneous causes of anemia, skin diseases, abnormal stool, and color changes; tail and claw
disorders and care; and fractures and their management. |
