Volume 16, Number 4, Summer 1999Animals get stressed, too--sometimes to the detriment of their health or reproductive ability. Studying animals from fish to livestock, researchers are learning more about this universal affliction. Forensic entomologist Robert Kimsey's specialty isn't for the squeamish: He uses his knowledge of insects and their role in decomposition to help resolve cases of suspicious death. |
About the cover: Animals--on the farm, in the home or in the wild--can be subject to harmful levels of stress. See the story "Creature Discomforts." To obtain a copy of the print version of UC Davis Magazine, please see "About UC Davis Magazine." |
