The essential companion for animal care and animal management students

The Fourth Edition of Animal Biology and Care introduces the biology and care of species that students learning to work with animals will commonly encounter. It has been written in line with course curricula including animal management, animal care and veterinary care assistant qualifications and is divided into logical sections including biology, health, and husbandry. Step-by-step guidance is provided for the common practical procedures carried out in various roles, whilst chapter summaries enable readers to remember key points and objectives. All sections are complemented by visual diagrams, flowcharts and new chapter glossaries to aid in reader comprehension. A companion website features interactive MCQs to help learners test their knowledge.

Revised and expanded, the new edition includes updates based on the increase in exotic pets, changes to animal welfare related guidance and legislation, the introduction of Technical (T-Level) Qualifications, and revisions to existing curricula. The author has also included a new chapter on the animal industry, with information on employability skills and potential vocational pathways, for readers to understand the further application of their studies as they embark on their careers in the animal industry.

Written by an experienced teacher and examiner, Animal Biology and Care includes information on:

  • Cells and basic tissues, movement of materials in the body, body systems and functions, body areas, and basic genetics
  • First aid, basic bandaging, quarantine and isolation, hospitalization, temperature, pulse, respiration, and administration of pharmaceutical drugs
  • Animal welfare, disease transmission and control, microbiology, zoonotic diseases, canine and feline diseases, zoonotic diseases, and parasitology
  • Animal husbandry, hygiene, nutrition, handling, grooming, and coat care

Animal Biology and Care is a foundational text for Level 2 and 3 qualifications in Animal Care and Management. It will also benefit veterinary nursing students seeking to develop their knowledge base.
