Majnun visited in the desert by his mother and Salim (Sanwlah). Various animals gathered around them., British Library, Or.12208, f.150b, 16th C.

This is the very first version of a bibliography on history of animals in the (Medieval and Ottoman Muslim world. Please send comments at medievalanimal@gmail.com and buquet.zarafa@gmail.com. If people are interested, we could organized a work-group on Zotero.org to share a bibliography with specialists from various origins and topics (hunting, falconry, veterinary medicine, horses, iconography, etc.)

This bibliography presents only secondary literature, no sources at all for the moment.

You may find a very good bibliography in L’animal en Islam. Paris: Les Indes savantes, 2005, pp. 171–181.

The bibliograhy of François Viré, who was the specialist of Arabic falconry, could be found in Viré, François, and Baudouin Van Den Abeele. ‘L’utilisation du grand corbeau, d’après le traité de chasse d’al-Asadī’. Arabica 52, no. 4 (2005): 544–564. http://www.jstor.org/stable/4057606.
