Casuarius_casuarius 21 Sep 2020 Shame that this species was phased out. Largest of the pleurodires (side-necks)...
Casuarius_casuarius 19 Nov 2020 @Onychorhynchus coronatus Not too certain. But the species was replaced with Podocnemis unifilis by the time I started volunteering with WRS in 2015

Onychorhynchus coronatus 19 Nov 2020 @Casuarius_casuarius That is a big shame as it is a conservation dependent species.
Casuarius_casuarius 19 Nov 2020 @Onychorhynchus coronatus I think it may have been beneficial. WRS does have good relations with other institutions in Europe & the States, some of which have well-established P. expansa breeding programmes. I'm sure the turtles went to a good home

Onychorhynchus coronatus 19 Nov 2020 @Casuarius_casuarius I hope so as these are impressive animals and hopefully they are now part of a breeding programe too.
