Haematology and plasma biochemistry reference intervals of Galapagos tortoises from Isabela Island

We describe haematology and biochemistry reference intervals in Galapagos giant tortoises from four different populations on Isabela Island. These reference intervals contribute new baseline health data on Galapagos tortoises, provide a practical tool for veterinarians working with these species and...

Descrição
Resumo:We describe haematology and biochemistry reference intervals in Galapagos giant tortoises from four different populations on Isabela Island. These reference intervals contribute new baseline health data on Galapagos tortoises, provide a practical tool for veterinarians working with these species and inform conservation and management decisions.
