About this book
Growth rings on a turtle's shell are one subject of this natural history of the ornate box turtle, Terrapene ornata ornata, by John M. Legler. One section explains how each season adds a new layer of epidermis to the shell plates, how major rings mark winter hibernation, and how minor rings record short pauses caused by injury, weather or lack of food. Figures and plates illustrate the text, and specimens are cited by University of Kansas numbers.
