Examination of mortality in different ratite species between 1999 and 2016
Absztrakt
The purpose of this thesis is to examine mortality in different ratite species over a period of 17 years, between 1999 and 2016. There are a multitude of reasons for mortality in ratites, we have conducted a small survey with birds that were sent in for post mortem examinations and have identified a small number of these reasons. It is important that we look at the causes of death with the attention they deserve in the hopes that we can advise the handlers in the best way to prevent these problems arising in the future.
