is this one? thought it's a cuora, but this one got no hinges on the plastron.
can anybody let me know why the color is like this? is it possible that the most outer layer of the shell has been peeled off (the one that gives the shell its color)?
what's the usual diet of these?
any site recommendations where i can read about this specie?
is what's the status of this, rare?
got this photo from a cantonese friend in hongkong, i just got amazed with the color, trying to pass this one to me as a cuora pani, thought it was a auracapitata.
thanks in advance for the replies...
