| Sumario: | "The first comprehensive view on the anatomy, physiology, endocrinology and toxicology involved in crocodilian reproduction. Reproductive Biology of the Crocodylia is based on over 40 years of research on global crocodiles, alligators and caimans. It brings together information previously scattered across many different sources to synthesize knowledge on the history, ecology, physiology and anatomy of crocodilians. This book presents a comprehensive review on the anatomy, physiology, endocrinology and toxicology of the Crocodylia. it then delves into the anatomy and reproductive cycles of both males and females, across various species. Finally the book focuses on efforts to protect vulnerable populations of crocodilians around the world, taking such factors such as pollution, climate change, and human disruption into consideration. It is an ideal resource for wildlife biologists and herpetologists seeking up-to-date and thorough research data on conservation efforts. It will also be helpful for exotic animal veterinarians, zookeepers, and alligator or crocodile farmers"--Print version, page 4 of cover. |
