mixed-animal practitioners. The range of topics, along with
the simplicity of the text and the thoroughness of the visual aids,
will enable veterinarians, inexperienced or seasoned, to provide a
better standard of care to camelids with more

while the discussions provide keys for vets and any staff members

veterinary reference collection, and for vets working with large
animals." (Midwest Book Reviews, 1 August
