| Publisher Description: Aquatic turtles are some of the most interesting and fascinating reptiles in the world and many make excellent pets. Many common species exhibit interesting behaviors, and well-designed turtle habitats are often very beautiful to behold. And while aquatic turtles aren't suitable for all keepers, many species adapt well to captivity when provided with suitable accommodations, proper temperatures and clean water. When caring for any pet, keepers must learn as much as possible about the biology, behavior and ecology of their chosen turtle species, in order to provide their new pet the highest quality of life possible. Begin that journey inside, by learning about aquatic turtles, their place in the world and how to provide them with an artificial habitat that meets their needs. The author, Ben Team, is an environmental educator and author with over 16 years of professional reptile-keeping experience. Ben currently maintains www.FootstepsInTheForest.com, where he shares information, narration and observations of the natural world.Covered in this book: - Acquisition- Anatomy- Behavior- Biology- Breeding- Captive Considerations- Daily Care- Description- Diet- Ecology- Enclosure- Health- Husbandry- Interaction- Lighting- Maintenance- Monitoring- Myths and Misunderstandings- Taxonomy- The ideal environment.... and much more |
