Sommario/riassunto

The references in this publication are concerned with captive animals and their care, behavior, health, handling and bodily functions, etc. This publication is not meant to be all inclusive as there are a number of private database collections on elephants which are not included here. The references are listed first under a General category which pertains to elephants in general and then under separate sections for African and Asian elephants. These two sections are further broken into



thirteen subsections such as Anatomy, Anesthesia/Analgesia, Behavior, Biology, etc. An additional section on Selected Elephant Web Sites has been added at the end of the publication. It is hoped this publication will be of use to those interested in elephants and their care, treatment and conservation in captivity and in the wild.
