THE DIGESTIVE SYSTEM OF
VERTEBRATES: CD
Acknowledgments:
I am grateful to the many people who
contributed to the preparation of this CD. I owe special thanks to the
many colleagues who contributed photographs of these animals. Most of
the fish photographs were obtained from contributors to the American
Fisheries Society Slide Catalog. Many of the amphibian and reptile
photos were contributed by Ted Hoberg and obtained from his CD on
Reptiles and Amphibians of North Dakota. A few of the mammal photos
were obtained from the Mammal Imaging Library of the American Society
of Mammalogists. Most of the other photographs were contributed by
members of the Comparative Nutrition Society, North Carolina State
University Environmental Medicine Consortium, and North Dakota Game and
Fish Department. I want to thank Dr. Bill Jensen for introducing me to
the publications on amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals of North
Dakota, and the photographer Chris Grondahl, department director, Dean
Hildebrand, and the editor Harold Umber for their use. I am grateful to
the reviewers of this CD, Drs. Malcolm Roberts and Jody Gookin, College
of Veterinary Medicine, N C State University. Their comments and
suggestions improved both its content and clarity. The encouragement of
Dr. Michael Stoskopf, College of Veterinary Medicine, N C State
University was much appreciated. I am especially indebted to Brenda
Bunch, Medical Illustrator, Biomedical Communication Department,
College of Veterinary Medicine, N C State University for the layout and
design of this CD, and patiently leading me through the its trials and
tribulations. We are both beholden to Esther Finegan, Department of
Animal and Poultry Science, University of Guelph, Guelph, Ontario,
Canada for her comments and advice on its preparation and
organization.
