Abstract

The results of clinical, radiological, hematological, histomorphological and toxicological research carried out on experimental lead poisoning of domestic and wild ducks are reported and discussed. Radiological, histological and toxicological investigations were aimed at determining the most characteristic features for diagnosis. These experiments support previous research on spontaneous lead poisoning of ducks kept in private reserves (Del Bono, 1970) and toxicological researches carried out recently (Sivieri, Buggiani and Rindi, 1972) on many breeds of migratory birds and confirm the serious consequences of this disease on many breeds of wild birds in Italy. © 1973, Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
