"Restraint and Handling of Wild and Domestic Animals, Third Edition, offers an introduction to the basic principles of animal restraint and an overview of techniques for vertebrate wild and domestic animals. Focusing on the most effective physical restraint techniques, the book provides essential information for ensuring the safety of both the handler and animal. Now in full color, the third edition of this classic reference is an invaluable tool to recognizing potential danger during restraint and reducing stress in the animal." "Fully updated throughout, the third edition also includes new chapters on understanding behavior, training for restraint and handling, and animal welfare during restraint. Additional new chapters cover small mammals and Ilamas, alpacas, and camels. Restraint and Handling of Wild and Domestic Animals is an unparalleled source of information on this core skill for veterinarians, veterinary students, end technician alike."--BOOK JACKET.
