Amartya Bag

Amartya Bag (bn : অমর্ত্য বাগ) is a legal professional and a proud Wikipedian. He is a Veteran Editor II, Autopatroller, Reviewer and Rollbacker on English Wikipedia. He came across Wikipedia while searching for some material on Julius Caesar for his school project in the summer of 2005 and he landed on Wikipedia and has been mesmerised by the wonderful contribution of some volunteers. Since then he continued to edit under IPs, mostly related to his place of residence. He is an active registered Wikipedian since 30 December 2005. He resides in a small but beautiful town of Cooch Behar, in the Indian state of West Bengal. He is currently residing in New Delhi - where he works in a legal education firm. He has a degree in Integrated B.A. LL. B. with honours specialisation in Intellectual property law from KIIT Law School, Bhubaneswar. He has a interest in editing pages related to North Bengal, West Bengal, Protected areas of India, Indian law and intellectual property law and his edits are confined to these fields. However in near future he may diversify to some other fields or may be helping in fighting vandalism. Moreover he thinks that "Wikipedia is one of the biggest charity organisation because no donation can be as big as the donation of free knowledge". He is proud to be one in the charity, for the prosperity and growth of knowledge and the human society.

African helmeted turtle
The African helmeted turtle (Pelomedusa subrufa) is a species of side-necked terrapin in the family Pelomedusidae. The species naturally occurs in fresh and stagnant water bodies throughout much of sub-Saharan Africa, and in southern Yemen. It is omnivorous, with its diet consisting mainly of aquatic invertebrates, small fish, and vegetation. It is typically a small turtle, with most individuals being less than 20 centimetres (7.9 inches) in straight carapace length. The female lays two to ten eggs on average, normally during late spring and early summer. The eggs are placed in a flask-shaped nest about 4 to 7 inches (10 to 18 centimetres) deep and hatch in 75 to 90 days. This African helmeted turtle was photographed in Phinda Private Game Reserve, South Africa.Photograph credit: Charles J. Sharp
