Abstract
Abnormalities and injuries in C, porosus are described, and their frequency in different size classes determined. There is no significant increase in injury frequency in size classes up to 70cm snoutvent length (SVL), which suggests that juvenile injuries are obtained soon after hatching. In size classes above 70cm SVL, injury frequency is high; 80% of individuals between 151 and 210cm SVL had scars.Keywords
