- catalog abstract ""Wild Mammals in Captivity, the first modern handbook of its kind, focuses on new approaches to the management of wild mammals in captivity. In one comprehensive volume, the editors have gathered the most current information from field and captive studies of animal behavior, advances in captive breeding, research in physiology, genetics, and nutrition, and new thinking in animal management and welfare." "Featuring contributions from dozens of internationally renowned experts, this book is a professional reference of immense practical value, surveying every significant scientific, technical, and management issue. Organized into seven parts, the forty-eight chapters and five appendixes cover the basics of husbandry and nutrition; the design, planning, and management of exhibits in zoos and wildlife parks; behavior, reproduction, and breeding; genetics and population management; and research with captive mammals." "This extraordinary book is an essential resource for administrators, keepers, veterinarians, and everyone else who works directly with mammals or is concerned generally with their management and conservation."--BOOK JACKET.".
