Hematology and blood chemistry values in free-living Imperial Cormorants (Phalacrocorax atriceps)
As part of an on-going long-term study on the reproductive ecology and health status of imperial cormorants (Phalacrocorax atriceps), blood samples were collected to establish baseline values for hematological parameters (hematocrit, red and white blood cell counts, leukocyte profile, heterophil/lym...
