This is such an amazing experience!! Last night a veterinarian from the capitol of Costa Rica, San Jose, came in to spend a few days with us. This evening we had an amazing chat as she did a power point presentation on sea turtle anatomy (these are the things I REALLY wanted to learn on this trip)! There are so many differences in a sea turtles’ anatomy (and all reptiles for that matter) than the other mammals that I have worked with and learned from. For example, sea turtles have NO diaphragm. I cannot wait for tomorrow and the following day when we will be learning and sea turtle physiology, common medical problems and specific case studies…also I am beyond excited to learn where to draw blood from on a turtle since I am nerdy and love to know those kinds of “techy” things!!
