| Hawksbill Sea Turtle - Eretmochelys imbricata Great Cranberry Island Historical Society |

|
|
|  Hawksbill Sea Turtle - Eretmochelys imbricata Great Cranberry Island Historical Society Description: On loan from Phil Whitney. This turtle shell, according to Whitney family legend, is suspected to be from an 1825 whaling expedition to the South Pacific. It was kept in the family home until 1928, when the Spurling house burned down, and was rescued from the flames by islanders trying to salvage their possessions. The shell is that of a Hawksbill sea turtle, larger than most found today, and you may notice an indentation on the left side. Turtles are adept at recovering from injuries but they can’t grow back bone, so this is likely an injury sustained from when this turtle was far smaller. [show more] | ||
