The book titled Rheology of Wild Animal Blood is structured into four chapters. Rheology is the study of the flow and deformation of matter, particularly fluids. In biological systems, blood rheology refers to the flow properties of blood-its viscosity, elasticity, and behavior under different shear rates. While blood rheology has been extensively studied in humans and laboratory animals, research on the rheological properties of wild animal blood is more limited. However, it is becoming increasingly important for understanding the physiology, adaptations, and overall health of these species. Wild animals occupy diverse, and often extreme, environments, which can result in unique hematological and rheological adaptations. For example, blood viscosity and red blood cell deformability may vary significantly between species and are influenced by factors such as body-temperature regulation, metabolic rate, altitude, hydration status, and locomotion strategies.
