Clostridium perfringens Type D Enterotoxaemia in the Chinkara Deer (Gazella bennettii)
During an enterotoxaemia outbreak, 9 out of 11 (82%) Chinkara deer (Gazella bennettii) died; 5 animals died of peracute disease, whereas acute death was observed in 4 animals.

متن کاملPreliminary findings of behavioral patterns in captive alpine musk deer (Moschus sifanicus) and prospects for future conservation
Captive farming of alpine musk deer (Moschus sifanicus) in China has been used for conservation and harvesting of musk since the mid 1950s. Despite this long history, management practices and captive breeding have been primarily based on trial and error due to lack of behavioral and ecological information about this vulnerable species. Understanding behavioral patterns plays a vital part in det...
