Below is the uncorrected machine-read text of this chapter, intended to provide our own search engines and external engines with highly rich, chapter-representative searchable text of each book. Because it is UNCORRECTED material, please consider the following text as a useful but insufficient proxy for the authoritative book pages.

OTHER VERTEBRATES Included in this section are mammals and birds less commonly used in research, as well as the amphibians, fishes, and reptiles. Topics in this section are arranged alphabetically by class and within classes. Insofar as is possible, the scientific and common names have been ver- ified using references listed on the following page. The vertebrates in this section are only a sample of the many ani- mals supplied by each company. Even if the specific animal you require is not listed, it may still be available from one of the listed compan- ies. Contact companies directly to discuss specific requirements. Investigators should recognize that suppliers may not keep wild- caught animals "in stock," and there may be considerable delay in obtain- ng some species. None of the animals in this section are included in the List of Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants (U.S. Department of the Interior, Fish and Wildlife Service, 1979). Any trade in endangered or threatened animals requires a permit from the Federal Wildlife Permit Office, Fish and Wildlife Service, U.S. Department of the Interior, Washington, D.C. 20240. Contact them directly for information and ap- propriate forms. Symbols used in this section are as follows: Source CR Availability G colony reared generally available available in winter SP available in spring Surgical modifications available: adr adrenalectomy cas castration hyp hypophysectomy nep unilateral nephrectomy ova ovariectomy WC wild caught SU available in summer F available in fall pan pancreatectomy pare parathyroidectomy thr thyroidectomy thy thymectomy 7s
