Turtle, Durban aquarium, South Africa

how many turtles do you see?

This turtle was found back-stroking swimming for some reason. I've never seen a turtle back-stroke swim before so this was interesting to watch.

This picture was taken at Conception Island

Actually the turtle in this picture has passed away and was being eaten by ants.

Turtles in the Touch Tanks

Werner-Boyce Salt Springs State Park is a small park that also touches about four miles of the Gulf of Mexico. It is located in Port Richey, FL in western Pasco County. There are so many opportunities to see animals in the natural habitat including gray fox, alligators, gopher tortoises, and endless species of birds.

Also, make yourself at home with the beautiful greenery that surrounds the whole park. If you are lucky, you may see a colorful butterfly, or the many animals that make the park their home.

What a suprise to find in middle of the highway. After some emergency manuvers this turtle was ensconced in a cooler and taken 1/8 mile to the conservation area. The turtle then got to pose for me.

My father always saves turtles along the road....I never even see any.

An Eastern Box Turtle (Terrapene carolina caroline) waiting to cross Hawkin Rd. in Burlington County, NJ. Although this seems like a peaceful county road, the turtle had had at least one near-miss previously (more here).

This is young one. The stripe down the top shell is distinctive for the subspecies.

It was brought to Ecology Camp by Renn Tumlison and I was able to get a few pictures.
