Re: Kruger National Park Challenges - New Entries
Here is another one fpr the ladies reptile count
An adult Speke's Hinged-back Tortoise (Kinixys spekii ) from Berg n Dal Picnic spot. A small hinged tortoise, with a flattened shell. What looks like a crack on its carapace is the hinge that allows the shell to close and protect the hind legs and tail.
In the genus Kinixys (Hingebacks) the hinge has evolved on the carapace instead of the plastron and lies inbetween the second and third costals. It allows the tortoises to close the hind quarters of their shells.
