The first volume in the series Adaptations of Desert Organisms covers physiological adaptations of domestic and wild animals to the harsh desert environment in a comparative manner, describing the different mechanisms adopted by animals to overcome the stresses and strains imposed by heat and aridity. Thermoregulation and water economy are considered in detail while also examining nutritional requirements and peculiarities of the digestive systems. This is a thorough and up-to-date analysis and review of the literature allowing readers to gain an insight and understanding of the ecophysiological adaptations that have developed in both domesticated and wild ruminants in order to survive and reproduce in the desert environment.
