The increased popularity and population of New World camelids in the United States requires the development of a broader base of knowledge of the health and disease parameters for these animals by the veterinary livestock practitioner. Although our knowledge regarding infectious diseases of camelids has increased greatly over the past decade, the practice of camelid medicine is a relatively new field in North America, so it is important to seek out seasoned colleagues and diagnostic laboratories that are involved in camelid health treatment and diagnosis.
在美国,新大陆骆驼科动物越来越受欢迎,数量也不断增加,这就要求兽医从业者拓宽对这些动物健康和疾病参数的知识基础。尽管在过去十年里,我们对骆驼科动物传染病的了解有了很大增加,但骆驼科动物医学在北美仍是一个相对较新的领域,因此,寻找经验丰富的同行以及参与骆驼科动物健康治疗与诊断的诊断实验室非常重要。
