    I want to share with everyone a new book I have just purchased called

    Zoo animals, behaviour, management and welfare by Geoff Hosey, Vicky Melfi and Shelia Pankhurst

    This book was well worth the price of £27.99.

    The book deals with all aspects of zoo keeping.

    What year was it published, and who was the publisher?

    I wonder how similiar it is to the American book Wild Mammals in Captivity that was published back in 1996. And that book was written as an update to Lee Crandall's Management of Wild Mammals in Captivity.
