(A production Report submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF VETERINARY MEDICINE, CHITTAGONG VETERINARY AND ANIMAL SCIENCES UNIVERSITY, KHULSHI, CHITTAGONG., 2023-08) Been-Zaman, Nayeem
The truth is that dangers from hunting, poaching, habitat degradation, and other manmade factors have forced tigers to live in captivity in zoo. The only way to keep the species alive has been in captivity. Due to their cramped living conditions and constant exposure to humans, captive tigers frequently exhibit strange behavior. Over the course of three days, a study of several behavioral features and a welfare analysis of sixteen Royal Bengal tigers (Panthera tigris) in Chattogram Zoo were conducted. The behaviors of individual or a group were recorded continually over 6 hours from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM. They are unable to move, swim, climb trees, hunt, and other activities that they generally undertake in the wild because they are enclosed and confined to a small area. In general, tigers kept in captivity have little to no control over the amount of time they are exposed to certain types of light, noises, smells, visits, or temperatures. These elements have an impact on tiger behavior or activity in captivity. But the authority of Chattogram Zoo have been working from the beginning to provide a comfortable environment and welfare of tigers.

Administration of Remdesivir for the Treatment of Feline Infectious Peritonitis – A Case report
(Clinical report submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Veterinary Medicine Faculty of Veterinary Medicine CHITTAGONG VETERINARY AND ANIMAL SCIENCES UNIVERSITY KHULSHI, CHITTAGONG-4225, 2023-11) Been-Zaman, Nayeem
Feline Infectious Peritonitis or FIP, is a life-threatening viral disease that can infect both domestic and wild cats. Mini, a 2 years 1 months old domestic female shorthair crossbreed cat weighing 3.2 kilograms, presented to the Teaching and Training Pet Hospital and Research Center (TTPHRC) in Purbachal, Dhaka, with a history of stress, lacrimation, conjunctivitis, anorexia, weight loss, and persistent fever. The patient was evaluated for following parameters: total protein (TP), albumin, bilirubin, SGPT, SGOT, and alkaline phosphatase (ALP). The patient's kidney, chest, and abdominal structures were examined with an X-ray and ultrasound. Based on the clinical history and symptoms, it was assumed that the cat had non-effusive feline infectious peritonitis which was confirmed by testing positive for FIP Ab rapid test and having low serum total protein and albumin-globulin (A-G) ratio. Remdesivir (10 mg/kg body weight daily for 84 days) was a successful treatment option for this cat. The patient successfully recovered and physically improved with better health after the completion of treatment.
