Kyle Horner is a naturalist and environmental educator who has taught at parks, zoos, botanical gardens, non-profits and the University of Guelph. He was introduced to birds at an early age by his father but has a particular interest in fostering appreciation for some of nature's less-beloved creatures. He lives in Guelph, Ontario. Sue Carstairs (BSc, DVM) is the executive and medical director at the Ontario Turtle Conservation Centre in Peterborough, Ontario. She also teaches a wildlife course to veterinary technicians at Seneca College. Summary:  " 'Turtles of North America' begins with an introduction to turtle biology, how they diversified over time and how we classify the groups of turtles that exist today. A section about anatomy details their basic body plan, and how it varies to take advantage of different environments. A section about behavior covers how they live, from what they eat to what eats them, and their importance in the environment. Fully illustrated species accounts describe the 64 species of turtles that inhabit the continental United States and Canada and the ocean waters that surround them. For each turtle there are photographs and text that show how to identify each species and give a little information about its life history. A range map shows where each turtle may be found. To complete this comprehensive guidebook, numerous additional pages highlight interesting or unusual aspects of North American turtle species."--From publisher.
