Incipient capture myopathy as revealed by blood chemistry of chased zebras / J. M. Hofmeyr; G. N. Louw; J. S. du Preez

By: Contributor(s): Material type: TextTextLanguage: English Series: Madoqua, Ser. 1, No. 7, 1973; p. 45 - 50Publication details: Windhoek : Nature Conservation and Tourism Branch of the South West Africa Administration, 1973, : John Meinert PrintingDescription: 6 pages : plates, tables; 28 cmISBN:

Subject(s): DDC classification:
  • PER 154 Madoqua
Summary: Zebras were subjected to stress which gave rise to elevation of cardiac rate, haematrocit, plasma osmolality and plasma levels of glucose, lactate and creatine kinase. These changes were very similar to those observed in animals actually suffering from capture myopathy. It was therefore tentatively concluded that incipient signs of shock and therefore of capture myopathy were evident in the chased group of animals
