Abstract:

How do you get a crocodile to urinate in a cup? That is one of the questions that Dr Jan Myburgh from the University of Pretoria (UP) and his colleagues have had to research in order to develop reliable, effective ways of monitoring the health of farmed crocodiles in anticipation of a coming boom in the local industry.
