Practical Guide to Equine Colic

This textbook on animal behavior is designed for advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students in veterinary science, animal science, and zoology and offers an integrated view of behavioral biology, bridging classical ethology, cognitive neuroscience, and ecological adaptation with practical veterinary applications. The initial chapters provide foundational aspects such as orientation, motivation, and communication before moving into core themes of learned behavior, cognition, social dynamics, reproduction, and courtship. It further addresses applied behavioral contexts in veterinary practice, including stress and welfare indicators, the impact of hormones and drugs, and human-animal interactions. The final sections explore ecological and evolutionary behavior, including movement, habitat selection, and behavioral responses to altered ecosystems. Emphasizing both theoretical depth and practical application, the book provides students and professionals with a modern, interdisciplinary perspective on the role of behavior in animal health, welfare, and survival. Key feature: 1) Provides an overview of animal behavior, covering foundational principles, learning and cognition, social dynamics, reproductive strategies, and ecological interactions. 2) Addresses complex behavioural phenomena such as social dominance, reproductive strategies, maternal investment, altruism, and host-parasite interactions within both naturalistic and managed settings 3) Explains the evolutionary and physiological basis of behaviour, drawing upon current understanding in genetics, endocrinology, neuroethology, and environmental biology 4) Examines behavioural responses to environmental pressures, including migration, habitat selection, anthropogenic disturbance, and ecosystem alterations 5) Incorporates the impact of exogenous influences such as hormone therapy, drug administration, and human-animal interactions on behavioural outcomes Short Blurb This veterinary textbook for postgraduate students presents an in-depth overview of animal behavior, combining ethological theory, behavioral neuroscience, and veterinary applications. It explores cognition, communication, stress responses, social behavior, and ecological adaptations, making it an important resource for students and professionals in veterinary and animal sciences. Seasonal Blurb This textbook for advanced graduate and postgraduate veterinary students introduces animal behavior through a modern lens, integrating classical ethology with veterinary, ecological, and neurophysiological insights. Designed for advanced veterinary and life science students, it covers foundational concepts such as orientation, motivation, and communication and extends into complex areas including social structure, cognitive behavior, stress and welfare indicators, pharmacological impacts, and reproductive strategies. The ecological dimension explores behavior in response to environmental shifts, host-parasite interactions, and conservation. It is useful for students and professionals in veterinary and animal sciences.

Brucellosis: The Silent Threat to Livestock and Human Health offers an in-depth look into the challenges posed by brucellosis, including its prevention, control, diagnosis, and treatment in animals and humans. This zoonotic disease is a significant concern not only for animal health but also public health, creating an economic burden worldwide. As the first comprehensive reference on brucellosis in decades, this book provides valuable insights into combating and managing the disease in herds and communities. The book emphasizes the importance of the One Health approach, presenting a global perspective on brucellosis. In addition, it discusses the contagious nature of the disease and its impact on livestock and humans, particularly those working in animal husbandry. The book serves as a foundation for new research, highlighting the need for further studies due to the lack of a cure for animals and the difficulties in treating humans.
