Title
Bird Species from Afghanistan displayed at Kabul Zoo - A Preliminary Report
Author(s)
Ostrowski, S.
Abstract
This preliminary report details WCS Veterinary Consultant Dr Stephane Ostrowski's visit to Kabul Zoo in order to determine the origins and health status of its captive bird species. This forms the early stages of an avian vaccination campaign and husbandry training program planned at the Zoo as well as initating efforts to spread a conservation message regarding capture of wild birds for trade.
