Age and sex comparison in determining baseline blood and coagulation profiles in semi-extensive Rusa deer (Rusa timorensis)
The objective of the study was to establish the baseline values for blood and coagulation parameters in normaland healthy rusa deer (Rusa timorensis) of different ages and sexes. The sample population consists of 40 rusa deer, divided into four groups of (i) juvenile males (ii) juvenile females (iii...

| description | The objective of the study was to establish the baseline values for blood and coagulation parameters in normaland healthy rusa deer (Rusa timorensis) of different ages and sexes. The sample population consists of 40 rusa deer, divided into four groups of (i) juvenile males (ii) juvenile females (iii) adult males and (iv) adult
females. The findings showed significant (p<0.05) higher values in erythrocyte count, calcium concentration and prothrombin
time in the adult males compared to adult female rusa deer. On the other hand, the total protein concentration was significantly
higher in adult females than adult male deer. No significant differences in blood or coagulation parameters were observed
between sexes in the juvenile deer. Between age group, the adult deer had significantly higher mean cell volume, plasma protein
and globulin concentration than juvenile rusa deer. Thus, it is necessary to take into account the age and sex of the rusa deer
when using blood reference values for the diagnosis of diseases or health assessment . |
