Kiwi first aid and veterinary care
By Kerri J. Morgan

What's it about?

It incorporates basic techniques to stabilise sick or injured kiwi. Specific diseases and common injuries that have been seen in kiwi are also addressed. Diagnostic and treatment techniques specific to each condition and, in some cases, specific to kiwi, are included.

The information given is not intended to be a complete reference for the veterinary treatment of kiwi, and is subject to change as more information on diseases or injuries and their treatment becomes available.
