Spotted Turtle

Description:

I love turtles, and I love seeing these guys even more. Spotted turtles are up there with diamondback terrapins as "turtles I would totally chill with". Unfortunately these cute little guys are an endangered species.

Habitat:

Inhabit a variety of semi-aquatic or in other words, shallow, fresh-water areas such as flooded forests, marshes, wet meadows, bogs and woodland streams in southern Canada (Ontario) and the eastern US: the eastern Great Lakes and east of the Appalachian Mountains.
