Whether you need to know how to treat a ferret, turtle, parrot, rabbit, guinea pig or even a bearded dragon, James W. Carpenter, professor of exotic pet, wildlife and zoological medicine in the College of Veterinary Medicine, has you covered.
The sixth edition of Carpenter's "Exotic Animal Formulary" was recently published. It was co-edited by Carpenter and Craig A.
