Default New Chelonia book

Amanda Ebenhack from Florida has just published a potentially very exciting title
about the rehabilitation, and care of Chelonia!
HEALTH CARE & REHABILITATION of TURTLES and TORTOISES by Amanda Ebenhack is the best turtle book published in the US in many years.  In the short week that it has been available, it has received rave reviews from veterinarians, rehabbers, zoo staff, and keepers and breeders around the US and overseas. 
 
This incredible 408 page softback book by Amanda Ebenhack is really a "must have" for every turtle keeper.  It is packed full of important, current information.

Interesting text, with nearly 400 pages. Readers should beware, there are a number of very graphic photographs showing some of the case studies that the author Amanda Ebenhack has dealt with. Road casualties, victims of major trauma and injury are graphically covered.
The book, provides a good deal of practical husbandry and shows the sometimes amazing powers of recovery in this ancient group of reptiles.
The book demonstrates well, why Amanda has achieved worldwide acclaim for her work with Chelonia and shows huge amounts of dedication to her cause.

Received my copy today. Had a quick look through, looks a very accessible read with lots of information on regular care as well as disease, injury, treatment and rehabilitation. Like the hook and eye shell trauma treatment. Hadn't seen this before.

It cost me about £35 delivered from the US Wendy.
