520 |a"Several turtle and tortoise species are currently endangered not only as a result of the destruction of their natural habitat, but also because of intensive international trade targeting them as pets or for their parts and derivatives. You can help change this situation by participating actively in controlling trade in turtles and tortoises in your country. This guide was created to enable you to identify turtles and tortoises mostly found in trade, protected or not by CITES (The Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora). It is designed to meet a need expressed by customs officers from various countries for an identification tool that is easy to use. No previous knowledge of turtles and tortoises is required."--How to use this guide.
