So Kame, my sisters turtle had died, and all I want yo know now, is what might be some possible causes of death, since we don't have money for a necropsy. She died with he eyes and mouth open it seems, and her legs in a swimming position, she was in the water and was not upside down, the heater, filter, and uvb were OK, as were the other 2 way smaller turtles, she still ate normally. This is all. She was approximately 30 years old, and we only had her for 2 years, recently in December we took her to the vet to take care of her aural infection, so that might have something to do with her death
