"This book is based on my earlier book, Protozoan Parasites of Domestic Animals and of Man, the first edition of which was published in 1961 and the second edition in 1973. During the interval since 1973, an increasingly large number of scientific papers has been published on parasitic protozoa and our knowledge of them has grown extensively. Although this book is much shorter, no essential information has been eliminated."

The care of injured wildlife brought into veterinary practices can cause problems because of lack of knowledge. Wildlife casualties present an enormous range of species and conditions not normally seen in veterinary practice. When a wildlife casualty is brought in it is the veterinary nurses who administer first aid and lifesaving and carry out any minor surgical procedures. This user-friendly book describes how to handle and provide first aid, how to feed and release, and many other disciplines not featured in veterinary or nursing training. It covers a whole range of species with sections on birds, mammals, reptiles and amphibians.
