Anyone know about any markings engraved on a turtle carapace ? The one i saw had HB engraved in about 1-1 1/2" letters on both sides of the carapace.

Best guess HB means Hawksbill Turtle.
Probably Scientific Stuff since they are so rare.
It looks too neatly done to be just some freehand grafitti. It looks like it was engraved with a pantagraph sort of device -- way more effort than a vandal would go to.It's sickening to think that this might be some sort of "Turtle Grafitti" done by some jerk who thinks it's "cool."
