Abstract
Baseline haematological data were obtained through routine analyses of blood samples from 31 wild black rhinoceroses captured in the Mana Pools National Park, Zimbabwe. Additional tests showed that the haemoglobin of this population is unstable; this observation helps explain the attacks of acute intravascular haemolysis documented in captive animals.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
