Hi, Frank Indiviglio here. Iām a herpetologist, zoologist, and book author, recently retired from a career spent at several zoos, aquariums, and museums, including over 20 years with the Bronx Zoo.
Turtle enthusiasts are, in my experience, among the most intense of all reptile keepers. Passionate (and financially well-off!) friends of mine have maintained astonishing collections ā upwards of 2,000 specimens in several cases ā and their desire to learn remains undiminished. In recent years, refined breeding techniques have introduced and re-introduced many fascinating species to the pet trade. Today Iād like to cover several that might interest folks with varying degrees of experience. Iāll review others in the futureā¦until then, please post notes about your own favorites (ānewā or āoldā) below, as those mentioned here are just a small sample. Read the rest of this article here Turtles as Pets: New Species to Try in 2014 | That Reptile Blog
