Although basic notions, such as life expectancy, and thus what constitutes old age, remain to be determined in the vast majority of reptile species, there is a tendency at least for captive reptiles to live longer now than in the past. Clinicians are expected to recognize signs of senescence or old age in reptile patients, to acquire a heightened index

Reptiles are increasingly being kept as pets in American households. The basic principles of emergency medicine are the same for all species, but reptilian species present special diagnostic challenges to veterinary clinicians when they become ill. Reptiles in captivity can become accidentally poisoned in a variety of ways. Veterinarians treating small

This paper reviews the literature on growth in reptiles. The current consensus is that growth data for small and medium-sized reptiles are best fitted by logistic-by-mass equations, data for larger reptiles by the von Bertalanffy equation. Experiments on the relationships between behavioural thermoregulation, food consumption and growth in both the ...

Reptile perinatology refers to the time period surrounding hatching for oviparous species, and immediately after birth for viviparous species. Veterinarians working in myriad conservation and breeding programs require knowledge in this area. This article reviews anatomy and physiology of the amniotic egg, the basics of artificial incubation, when ...

Creating repetitive geometric features such as scales or cobblestones for computer graphics is difficult and tedious to perform manually, particularly for seamless 3D surfaces. However, procedural approaches rarely provide the fine-grained control required for motion picture production.

Successful reptile anesthesia requires patience, planning, and understanding of normal anatomy and physiology in health and disease. Reptiles make good anesthetic patients because of their physiologic resilience. New drugs that are not only safe and efficacious, but also result in relatively short recovery times, have greatly enhanced the design of ...

Like in fishes, the reptiles appear to show three types of senescence. The African skink, Mabuya buettneri, shows rapid senescence similar to death at mating observed in Salmon and marsupial mouse. Most of the lizards and snakes undergo gradual senescence comparable to the pattern exhibited by a majority of vertebrates.
