44 NORMAL BLOOD IN DOMESTICATED ANIMALS 



Refik-Bey gives the normal number of leucocytes for cattle 

 as 7,000-11,000 per cmm., the number of mononuclears (includ- 

 ing lymphocytes) as 4,500-6,500 per cmm. (57-84%), the number 

 of polynuclears as 1,500-3,500 per cmm. 



SHEEP 



The average number of red corpuscles is given by Woltmann 

 as 8,000,000 and of leucocytes as 8,000 per cmm. Wetzl found the 

 red corpuscles in normal sheep to vary from 8,008,000 to 9,272,000 

 per cmm. and the amount of hemoglobin to vary from 47 to 63. 

 Giltner found higher amounts in two normal males. The red 

 corpuscles were 9,120,000 and 11,500,000, the hemoglobin 85 in 

 each and the leucocytes 5,330 and 10,900 per cmm. Woltmann 

 found the following percentages of the several varieties of leu- 

 cocytes. Giltner found widely varying percentages in two males. 

 Each had many more lymphocytes than were found by AVolt- 

 mann. More work is needed on the blood of normal sheep.
