  • Herpetology in India Romulus & Zai Whitaker
    British Herpetological Society Bulletin. No. 8. 1983 HERPETOLOGY IN INDIA ROMULUS & ZAI WHITAKER Madras Snake Park and Madras Crocodile Bank Trust, Raj Bhavan P.O., Madras-600 022, India INTRODUCTION Herpetology has always ranked a poor fourth or fifth in natural history interests in India. Since the days of Frank Wall and Malcolm Smith in the early part of this century, amazingly little has been added to our knowledge of Indian herpetology. However the last few years has seen an upsurge in herpetological work: laboratory, ecological and captive breeding. This paper summarizes activities in this field over the past decade. Where data is available, information on other countries of the sub-continent is included. ORGANIZATIONS The Zoological Survey of India (ZSI) (founded in 1916) is the Government's official agency for herpetological studies, survey and collection. It functions under the new Department of Environment in the Ministry of Science and Technology and publishes the prestigious records of the Zoological Survey of India and Bulletin of the ZSI. Based in Calcutta, ZSI has a network of substations throughout the country. ZSI herpetologists (see Table 1) are active mainly in the fields of survey and taxonomy. Since 1970 twelve amphibians and two snakes new to science have been described and surveys in endangered habitats such as Silent Valley in Kerala have been undertaken. ZSI is the Government's Scientific Authority under the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES). The ZSI maintains one of the two large collections of preserved material in India. The National Museum of Natural History in New Delhi which also functions under the Department of Environment and was started in the mid-1970's is in the process of organizing its own herpetological collection and staff.

  • (Crocodylus Porosus) in a Commercial Crocodile Farm of Bangladesh
    Univ. j. zool. Rajshahi Univ. Vol. 31, 2012 pp. 35-38 ISSN 1023-6104 http://journals.sfu.ca/bd/index.php/UJZRU © Rajshahi University Zoological Society High hatching success of saltwater crocodile (Crocodylus porosus) in a commercial Crocodile Farm of Bangladesh Md. Sakhawat Hossain, M. Firoj Jaman, Mushtaq Ahmed, Md. Mokhlesur Rahman, Md. Saidur Rahman Department of Zoology, University of Dhaka, Dhaka-1000, E-mail: [email protected] Abstract: An extensive study was conducted from March 2007 to February 2012 on hatching success of saltwater crocodile (Crocodylus porosus) in the Reptiles Farm Ltd. (RFL) located at Hatiber village of Uthura union under Bhaluka upazila in Mymensingh. The study was mainly based on direct field observation and some previous data collected by farm’s technicians. A special type of incubator having 98-100% moisture and 31-330C temperature was maintained to improve the hatching success. Yearly hatching success in captivity was 95.8%, 95.15%, 97.44%, 96.03% and 94.53% in 2007 through 2011, respectively. The average rate of hatching success in RFL was 95.8 ± 1.09%. Hundred percent hatching success was found in 29 out of 56 clutches. Clutch size varied from 19 to 68 eggs. Unhatched eggs were 4.19%, of which most of the embryos died before hatching. The average time required for incubation was 79 ± 3, 79.5 ± 4.5, 80 ± 4, 80.5 ± 4.5 and 78.5 ± 3.5 days in the above mentioned period. Compared to the wild habitat, captive environment in controlled weather and predation might improve hatching rates. This study suggests that conservation of this endangered species is possible by captive breeding and reintroduction program.

Australia as part assessment for completion of Certificate III in Captive Animals, Course number 1068, RUV30204. Since the husbandry guidelines are the result of student project work, care should be taken in the interpretation of information therein, - in effect, all care taken but no responsibility is assumed for any loss or damage that may result from the use of these guidelines. It is offered to the ASZK Husbandry Manuals Register for the benefit of animal welfare and care. Husbandry guidelines are utility documents and are ‘works in progress’, so enhancements to these guidelines are invited. 2 TABLE OF CONTENTS 1 INTRODUCTION............................................................................................................................... 6 2 TAXONOMY .................................................................................................................................... 11 2.1 NOMENCLATURE........................................................................................................................ 11 2.2 SUBSPECIES................................................................................................................................11
