SUBACUTE ATROPINE TOXICITY IN A PYGMY SPERM WHALE, KOGIA BREVICEPS

Journal of Zoo and Wildlife Medicine, 2002
Atropine, an anticholinergic agent commonly used in human and veterinary medicine, is reported to cause toxicity associated with its antimuscarinic action. A juvenile pygmy sperm whale, Kogia breviceps, was treated with atropine in an attempt to relieve symptoms similar to pyloric stenosis, as has been used in humans. Two doses of 0.01 mg/kg were given

Marine debris ingestion and human impacts on the Pygmy sperm whale (Kogia breviceps) in southern Brazil

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2020
Pygmy sperm whales, Kogia breviceps (Kogiidae), are a small cetacean that inhabits Mesopelagic regions near the continental shelf. In this study we present record of plastic ingestion by K. breviceps in Brazil.

Treatment of a strandling whale(Kogia breviceps)

New Zealand Veterinary Journal, 1984
A stranded young pygmy sperm whale was nursed for four days in a pool, fed an artificial diet via a stomach tube and injected intramuscularly with antibiotics and corticosteroids. Initially unable to maintain her balance or to swim, she showed progressive improvement and by the third day could swim and dive quite strongly.

GASTROINTESTINAL LEIOMYOSARCOMA IN A PYGMY SPERM WHALE (KOGIA BREVICEPS)

Journal of Zoo and Wildlife Medicine, 2013
An adult male pygmy sperm whale (Kogia breviceps) was stranded within a tidal pool on Fernandina Beach on the north Florida Atlantic coast (USA) and expired soon after discovery. Necropsy findings included a small intestinal mass markedly expanding the intestinal wall and partially obstructing the lumen.

A histological study of the facial hair follicles in the pygmy sperm whale (Kogia breviceps)

2023
In the pygmy sperm whale (Kogia breviceps, Blainville 1838), vibrissae are present in neonates, but within a few months the hairs are lost, and the structures remain as empty vibrissal crypts (VCs). In this work, we have studied histologically the facial vibrissal follicles of two juveniles and one adult specimens stranded dead.

Composition of milk of the pygmy sperm whale (Kogia breviceps)

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Physiology, 1978
Abstract 1. 1. A 315cm lactating female pygmy sperm whale, Kogia breviceps , accompanied by a 156cm female calf stranded on south Miami Beach, Dade County, Florida, on 13 March 1974, were used in the experiment. 2. 2. A sample of milk from the lactating female contained less fat and more lactose than most cetecean milks previously analyzed.

Kogia breviceps (Pygmy sperm whale)

1974
Skin and lung biopsies were grown from a male specimen washed ashore 1971 in San Diego, California, USA, identified as this species by skull preparation and body conformation. The karyotype of the female was donated by Dr. Debbie Duffield, Los Angeles, California. It came from cornea preparations of a specimen captured in the Atlantic Ocean in 1972.
