About this book
Disease in Captive Wild Mammals and Birds is a book by Herbert Fox on incidence, description and comparison. The book names Herbert Fox as pathologist to the Zoological Society of Philadelphia, with a foreword by Charles B. Penrose. The text reports a small outbreak of enteritis among small Carnivora, chiefly cats, fed upon fowl heads, which was due to Bact. paracoli, or at least this organism was found in the intestinal mucosa, spleen, and heart's blood of three cases.
The text names ulcerative gastritis as the most striking lesion of the Pinnipedia. The text records a Guinea Baboon (Papio sphinx) that had, as an unusual part of his general tuberculosis, an active caseopurulent collection in the antrum of Highmore. The text says there is no inverse relation between the amount of bone marrow and that of splenic bulk.
