1 The Montreal Aquarium, Montreal, Quebec, Canada and the School of Veterinary Medicine, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, U.S.A.
Hematologic and plasma chemical constituents were analyzed through a 72 hour period, on a bottle-nosed dolphin that had been subjected to excessive manipulation and carbon tetrachloride intoxication. Of the 19 parameters examined, creatine phosphokinase, glucose, and potassium, seem to have been mildly affected.
