| Plasma -tocopherol levels in free-ranging black rhinoceros (Diceros bicornis) have previously been shown to be higher than in zoo animals (0.8 vs.0.2 g/ml, P< 0.001). Dietary vitamin E levels may be correlated with health problems observed in captivity. Plants (n=73) consumed by black rhinos w... |

| Previous work from our laboratory and others has documented differences in plasma alpha-tocopherol levels between zoo (0.2 micrograms/ml) and free-anging (0.8 micrograms/ml) black rhinos, and suggested that many captive animals may be suffering from vitamin E deficiency. This original comparison... |

| Hemolytic anemia in black rhinoceroses has been noted with alarming frequency in recent years. In several instances, death ensued, and an etiology of leptospirosis, babesiosis and trypanosomiasis has been proposed. In one instance, hemolytic anemia developed in a black rhinoceros being treated ... |
