Trionyx Turtle

Posted by Joe on January 06, 1999 at 20:20:57:

Is it within the realm of possibility to get a skeleton of a modern Trionyx (soft shelled turtle)? Several of us in Alberta need a specimen to compare Late Cretaceous soft-shelled turtle parts to. Or, does anyone have an original or good photocopy of a publication showing detailed drawings of Trionyx osteology (phalanges, vertebrae, etc.? Would send some nice fossils as a thank you.
