Default Hermann Tortoise by Holger Vetter

Does any one know where I could purchase a copy of Hermann's Tortoise, Boettger's and Dalmatian Tortoises: Testudo boettgeri, hercegovinensis and hermanni (Chelonian Library, Volume 2) by Holger Vetter. Or does anyone have a copy they would be willing to sell ?

I don't think anyone can top that price and that is a trust worthy operation... if you don't mind dealing with a frog.

Why has the price plumetted on that book? I'll be he's comming out with a new edition.

So... you consider the French a seperate race??????... hmm... interesting. I also consider Karim a friend. Perspective is everything.

Also... the word is RACIST... if used in the proper context.

I think that the context is very clear!

Most normal people will see it as one friend poking fun at another.

I can see how certain tortoise keepers could take that comment out of context and spin it to facilitate their own evil intentions. It's been done to me before and has demonstrated to me the character of the person I'm dealing with.
