Normal ocular features, conjunctival microflora and intraocular pressure in the Canadian beaver (<i>Castor canadensis</i>)

Abstract

Gram-positive aerobes were most commonly cultured from the conjunctival sac of normal beavers, with Micrococcus spp. predominating. The overall mean IOP in ketamine-sedated beavers was 17.95 mmHg. The beaver, an amphibious rodent, has an anangiotic retina.
