However, in avian species, quantitative data regarding the practicability and feasibility of neurological tests are very limited. Therefore, the aim of this study was to establish normative data for the neurological examination of clinically healthy birds of different species.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Methods<\/jats:title>\n \n Forty\u2010two domestic and feral pigeons (\n Columba livia domestica<\/jats:italic>\n ), 42 mute swans (\n Cygnus olor<\/jats:italic>\n ), 12 common buzzards (\n Buteo buteo<\/jats:italic>\n ), 24 common kestrels (\n Falco tinnunculus<\/jats:italic>\n ) and six northern goshawks (\n Accipiter gentilis<\/jats:italic>\n ) were examined. All birds underwent a predefined neurological examination. Interobserver variations between three examiners were investigated in 11 pigeons and 11 mute swans.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n All postural reaction tests, except for the drop and flap reaction in mute swans, provoked a consistent response in pigeons and mute swans, whereas postural reaction tests of the legs in raptors were often not performable. Cranial nerve tests and most of the spinal reflexes revealed variable responses in all birds. The gastrocnemius reflex was not provokable in any bird. Interobserver agreement was almost perfect (Gwet's AC1 coefficient \u22650.81) for 16 of 21 parameters in the examination in pigeons and for 14 of 21 in mute swans.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Limitations<\/jats:title>\n The inclusion of free\u2010ranging birds, which were not used to handling and for which limited information regarding age, history of previous diseases, etc. was available, may have influenced the results.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n The normative neurological examination data provided in this study will help improve clinicians' interpretation of neurological examination\u00a0results in the respective bird species.<\/jats:p>\n
