Handbook of food plants for tortoises and other reptiles

Handbook of forage plants 2nd revised editionMarion Minch is not only a successful breeder of diverse tortoises for many years, but also an excellent connoisseur of native wild herbs. She founded and runs samenkiste.de, which is well known to many tortoise keepers and nature lovers. Her name is inextricably linked with reptile care and species-appropriate nutrition for tortoises. Her handbook of food plants summarises the most important native food plants for herbivorous and omnivorous reptiles. She not only considers tortoises, but also iguanas, spiny-tailed dragons and even chameleons. From the basics of plant biology to native wild herbs to suitable food plants for hardy tropical reptile species, this comprehensive work provides the basis for species-appropriate keeping. In the expanded and supplemented 2nd edition, the plant section is divided according to flower colour. This makes it even easier to identify wild herbs. The work has also been supplemented with a wealth of additional information and many pictures.

Reptilia 114 - Jurassic World in the living room, dinosaurs for the terrarium Florida climbing plantsTropical land snailsContents:Cover story: Jurassic World in the living room – dinosaurs for the terrarium“Jurassic World” is this summer’s blockbuster. Hardly anyone can escape the fascination of dinosaurs. And our modern-day prehistoric creatures quickly catch the eye. Many lizards actually look like real dinosaurs in miniature. They enchant with their prehistoric charm and make many people want to keep such a miniature dinosaur at home. And the best thing is: with many species, this is very possible! We present the best “dinosaurs” for the terrarium. And, of course, we take a closer look at “Jurassic World” and talk to a palaeontologist about the chances of us actually being able to see real dinosaurs one day – and whether they would even look like they do in the cinema.
