Understanding reptile parasites from the experts at advanced vivarium systems
Although the mortality rate in captive reptiles has decreased significantly, parasitism remains the third leading cause of reptile death. In this newly updated edition, Roger J. Klingenberg, DVM, presents essential information on preventing reptile parasites as well as treating your pet if it develops a problem. This guide details the symptoms of external parasites, such as mites and ticks, and internal parasites, such as Cryptosporidium and protozoa. With helpful lists and charts, Understanding Reptile Parasites pulls together all the useful information and presents it in a way that makes sense. Be a responsible keeper, and add this key volume to your Herpetocultural Library. The highly acclaimed Advanced Vivarium Systems books, founded and guided by herpetocultural pioneer Philippe de Vosjoli, are the #1 books on reptile care. From choosing a pet to selecting a veterinarian to feeding, housing, breeding, and more, these books deliver the most helpful and up-to-date information available on popular reptiles and amphibians kept as pets.
