Chemical Restraint of Wild Animals

The book Chemical Restraint of Wild Animals offers a comprehensive ready reckoner for wildlife veterinarians and forest rangers on wild animal restraint and very practical information with a systematic documentation of species-specific immobilizing drugs, their administration techniques, monitoring, and potential complications. The book also provides information on a variety of anesthetic equipment, its usage, darting techniques, and precautions while restraining a wide range of wildlife species, including aquatic animals, aves, reptiles, rodents, carnivores, insectivores, ruminants, and large mammals like elephants and rhinoceroses.

The book will be useful for wildlife veterinarians and forest managers for the safe use of chemical restraint in the case of precious wildlife species for their clinical health management, experimentation, and translocation.
