    Author: Schultz DJ, Hough IJ, Boardman W.
    Journal: Rev Sci Tech; 1996 Mar; 15(1):289-308. PubMed ID: 8924711.
    Abstract:
    The authors review infectious and parasitic diseases of eutherians (excluding marine mammals), marsupials, reptiles and birds in Australia and New Zealand. The diseases discussed are those which are common and/or more likely to affect humans. The emphasis is placed on the type of animal affected, the epidemiology, and hence the control or prevention measures necessary. Clinical signs, pathology and treatment are not considered in any detail.
