Hematology and plasma chemistry values in free-ranging Humboldt penguins (Spheniscus humboldti) in Chile

Abstract 10.1002/zoo.1430140403.abs To establish baseline hematologic and plasma biochemistry values in free-ranging Humboldt penguins (Spheniscus humboldti), heparinized blood samples were collected from 51 apparently healthy, adult Humboldt penguins residing at two colonies off the Chilean coast. Thirty samples were collected in April, 1992, from penguins inhabiting the Ex-islote de los Pájaros Niños in Algarrobo, Chile. […]
