Distribution and morphology of ventricular bands in the hearts of ringed seals
Abstract In contrast to studies on domestic animals, few reports describe ventricular bands in wildlife, and none in aquatic mammals. Ventricular bands in the endangered Saimaa ringed seal ( Pusa hispida saimensis ) and the Baltic ringed seal ( Pusa hispida botnica ) were examined as part of an ongo...
