Trade Review"From crocodiles to wombats, numbats to venomous fish, and all in between, the species profiles are an excellent resource, with information on biology, handling and veterinary considerations such as sedation techniques, sample collection or euthanasia. Wildlife Research in Australia: Practical and Applied Methods is an invaluable tool for researchers, teachers, students, animal ethics committee members and organisations participating in wildlife research and other activities with wildlife." * Wildlife Health Australia *
"A remarkable and complete guide for planning and conducting wildlife research in Australia and for Australian researchers completing studies in other countries. [...] It is not a book that will sit on a shelf gathering dust, rather it will be lying open where it can be easily and readily consulted as needed." -- Dave Fleming * Australasian Journal of Environmental Management *
