Let me just drive home the seriousness of this type of abnormality: Audrey's shell is part of her skeleton. The warped bone constricts and squashes her internal organs. Her growth and diet must be monitored carefully to minimize further damage.

Do you have a baby turtle or know of a friend who has one? Baby turtles are often impulse buys. Like any pet, you should thoroughly research its needs before taking it home. Because look: Audrey was once a cute little hatchling too.
