Thank you for your posts regarding the anatomy of turtles. What a very
Interesting look at the internal organs and systems that make these beautiful
Reptiles live and breathe. I'd just like to point out that to me these don't strike me
As graphic in any regard. It is science and a means of learning more about
The reptiles that we share a common love for. I'm not suggesting weather or not it's right
To use reptiles like our turtles for dissection. I'm just stating that I find the photos to be
Interesting and informative not graphic.
