Spiny Turtle (Heosemys spinosa)
Spiny Turtle in the forest! π’π³
One thing I did not expect to see whilst wandering around the forest of Phuket was a turtle walking around! This big female Spiny Turtle was walking through the dense undergrowth on top of a rainforest hill away from any water. She was possibly searching for a suitable nesting site!
South-east Asia has a very impressive turtle/tortoise diversity and it's always so exciting to see one! π’
