Nephroblastoma with Pulmonary Metastases in a Guanaco

Veterinary Pathology, 1988
A 3-month-old male guanaco (Lama guanicoe) was found dead in its stall. No signs of illness had been noted. It had been born at the zoo following normal gestation and delivery. Neither the sire nor the dam were known to have had illnesses; both were alive and well at the time of the young guanaco's death.

Esophageal fistulation in the Guanaco

Small Ruminant Research, 1994
Abstract A surgical procedure is described for preparing esophageal fistulae in the Guanaco, one of the four species of South American camelids, which differs in detail from the technique in other ruminants due to the anatomy of the Guanaco neck. The thick skin of the neck and the immobility of the esophagus necessitate high accuracy in the placement

Immobilization of guanacos by use of tiletamine/zolazepam

Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1996
Adult male guanacos were immobilized by use of tiletamine/zolazepam. The effective dosage (mean +/- SD) was 5.0 +/- 1.1 mg/kg of body weight. Mean time from injection to immobilization was 7.3 minutes. Usually, immobilization was of sufficient duration (mean, 61 minutes) to allow guanacos to be weighed, measured, and to have ear tags inserted and blood

ENROFLOXACIN-INDUCED RETINOPATHY IN A GUANACO (LAMA GUANICOE)

Journal of Zoo and Wildlife Medicine, 2006
A 4-yr-old male guanaco (Lama guanicoe) in a multispecies exhibit presented with a laceration in the axillary region. The laceration was surgically repaired. Medical treatment was initiated with penicillin G procaine and benzathine (1920 IU/kg, i.m., s.i.d. for 14 days), and enrofloxacin (2.4 mg/kg, i.m., s.i.d. for 14 days).

Protecting the Chilean Guanaco

Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, 2003
The Chilean Agricultural and Livestock Service (SAG) is trying to keep the guanaco (Lama guanicoe), a wild relative of the llama, from disappearing from the Andes mountains overlooking the capital, Santiago, in central Chile. "There are nine separate populations across the country, but in the metropolitan region the guanaco has suffered greatly from ...

Insulative Flexibility in the Guanaco

Journal of Mammalogy, 1966
The surface of the guanaco ( Lama guanicoe ) varies from an extensive densely matted fur above (40% of total area) to sharply defined areas of almost bare skin below (20% of total area). These contrasting areas could allow an unusual flexibility in thermal conductance, as much as 5-fold in still air and perhaps 25-fold with wind.

Assessing the effect of radiocollars on juvenile guanaco survival

Oecologia, 2000
To evaluate the potential impact of our research activities on guanacos (Lama guanicoe), we tested for effects of radiocollaring on juvenile (≤1 year of age) survival in Torres del Paine National Park, Chile during 1992-1996. The survival of collared (40.1%) and uncollared (38.2%) juveniles was not significantly different (G=0.08; P=0.77).

Systemic candidosis in a guanaco ( Lama guanicoe )

Veterinary Record, 2009
Candida species are ubiquitous dimorphic fungi that normally inhabit the digestive, upper respiratory and urogenital tracts of various warm-blooded animals. They are also the aetiological agent of candidosis, which is usually caused by Candida albicans and generally occurs in immunocompromised ...
