If you can take blood samples, then I will send you a buffer solution to store it. Standard shipping is OK if samples are in EtOH or a buffer. If blood is shipped alone, then it would have to be on dry ice. My address is above. Jeanette needs fresh or freshly frozen dead adult box turtles that she can photograph for a new veterinary text titled The Anatomy of Reptiles .
Euthanized animals are preferred.
Road kills that still have some anatomy will work. If you have or expect to have some dead turtles in the next few months, please contact Jeanette. The book is being published by Krieger Publishing in Malabar Florida and is due out January 2000. Take it up to the check out desk and show them what is wrong. Tell them what needs to be done.
