Abstract

Hematologic reference values can be used to help monitor the health of birds kept in captivity for conservation and management purposes. The reference intervals for hematologic analysis in clinically healthy, captive red-and-green macaws (n = 42) were determined and evaluated as to whether they varied with sex. Males showed higher hemoglobin values than females. This report defines hematologic reference intervals of captive, healthy red-and-green macaws kept under similar conditions.
