The Biology of the Aardvark (Orycteropus afer). Please note that the figures within this file are removed to avoid copyright problems. Abstract: The thesis at hand represents the first encyclopaedic description of the biology of the aardvark (Orycteropus afer). This extraordinary mammal resembles no other animal on earth. The aardvark is the only recent representative of the order Tubulidentata and represents the last survivor of the primeval hoofed animals (Protungulata) and thus is rightly called a 'living fossil'. Numerous books, articles and internet pages have been researched and the most important information on the aardvark has been condensed into this work. In addition to the literature research a survey was run. African game parks and zoos keeping the aardvark were successfully asked in order to obtain some new findings on open questions concerning the aardvark. This work has to be understood as a means to learn about the different aspects of the aardvark's biology. It presents them in a way that gives a complete overview but nevertheless goes into detail deep enough to understand what is behind.Deutsch: German translation:

Zusammenfassung: Die vorliegende Arbeit stellt die erste umfassende Beschreibung der Biologie des Erdferkels (Orycteropus afer) dar. Dieses sehr eigentümliche Säugetier ähnelt keinem anderen Tier. Das Erdferkel ist der einzige rezente Vertreter der Ordnung Tubulidentata und stellt den letzten Überlebenden der Urhuftiere (Protungulata) dar. Daher wird es zurecht als ‘lebendes Fossil’ bezeichnet. Eine Reihe Bücher, Artikel und Internetseiten wurden durchforscht und die wichtigsten Informationen über das Erdferkel wurden in dieser Arbeit zusammengefasst. Über die Literatur-Recherche hinaus wurde auch eine Umfrage gestartet. Neue Erkenntnisse konnten dadurch gewonnen werden, dass offene Fragen bezüglich der Erdferkel erfolgreich Nationalparks in Afrika und Zoos, die Erdferkel halten, gestellt wurden. Diese Arbeit soll als Mittel angesehen werden, die unterschiedlichen Aspekte der Biologie des Erdferkels zu verstehen. Sie werden auf eine Weise dargestellt, die sowohl einen kompletten Überblick verschafft als auch weit genug für tieferes Verständnis ins Detail geht.Afrikaans: Samevatting van die diplomatesis: Titel: Die Biologie van die Erdvark (Orycteropus afer) |
