Diamonds in the Marsh: A Natural History of the Diamondback Terrapin Brennessel Barbara
A new edition of a classic on a beloved turtle species.She's the mascot for the University of Maryland's sports teams and her ancestors were nearly driven to extinction by Victorians who indulged in turtle soup. The size of a dinner plate and named for the beautiful concentric rings on her shell, she can live at least forty years and is the only turtle in North America who can live in brackish and salty waters. But as she buries herself in the mud every night to sleep, the diamondback terrapin knows none of this.
Several diamondback populations have been the subjects of ecological studies in recent years, but most of that information was buried in scientific literature and various state and federal reports--until this book.Synthesizing all known research on this remarkable animal, Diamonds in the Marsh is the first full-scale natural history of the diamondback
