Beschreibung
All members of the camel family (Camelidae) belong to the order Artiodactyla (even-toed ungulates) and suborder:Tylopoda (pad-footed). To detect abnormality in camels, the veterinarian must be familiar with the normal health state. A healthy camel is one, which has an erect head, clear eyes, prickled ears with a bright manner, normal appetite, pulse rate, and temperature. The hump often gives a good indication of health and should be rounded, plump and vertical or slightly inclined. Some smaller breeds of desert camels have small humps, which should not be confused with the flabby, shrunken hump of deprived, aged or sick camel (HMSO, 1956). Other signs of disease in camels are similar to other species. The description of camels' disease, its detection and prevention is described in this book.
