Vasectomy Operations for Control of overpopulation of Spotted Deer and other Ungulates.
Dr. Manik Palit, TATA Zoo.
Pages: 6

Language: English
Description:
Majority of zoos in India are stranded with a huge population of Axis deer in their collection. Many a times to get rid of the surplus animals, axis deer are released into reserve forests or in wildlife sanctuaries in unplanned manner. Tubectomy or Vasectomy as a tool for controlling overpopulation among herd anmals is rarely used in Indian zoos, either due to lack of knowledge or due to fear of loosing animals during post-operative care.
Regards
