EckyThump 07/15/23 2:56:28 AM #5:	I used to volunteer at a zoo, and one of the things I used to do there was what they called a "touch table". It was a whole bunch of animal first/body parts that had either been donated or seized by customs from smugglers at airports. One of the things we had was the top half of a sea turtle shell, and you could see the ribs very plainly. --- Sometimes I leave the lids off things. But that's where Satan gets in!

Dare I ask what happened Apparently people really liked watching videos of sea turtles being cleaned of barnacles and other grim to make them more healthy so people started glueing shit to turtle shells to make videos of them peeling it off. --- Sigful User Logic <cite>BurmesePenguin posted [p:974849245] in A turtle's...

Fascinating in its own way though. One of my favourite relics we had there was an elephant's tooth. Not the tusk, but the actual tooth.

Kradek 07/15/23 3:05:30 AM #10:	I saw a post saying what most of what TC said along with a diagram showing how it's their actual skeleton on my IG wall a few days ago.

Kai_Laguna 07/15/23 3:09:46 AM #11:	Well technically they do have skin, a scale-like growth called scutes and the accompanying blood vessels over it. So it's not like it's just bone, just mostly. <cite>Kai_Laguna posted [p:974849358] in A turtle's...
