Terrapene Carolina Carolina
More than a foot long. She'll too dirty to see markings
Woodland
It was a land turtle definitely not a red ear slider. They have flat shells this had a sloping shell that tortoises have. I guess it not a eastern box.
This is a pond turtle, likely a Red-eared Slider.
Looks huge for a box turtle.
That's not an eastern box turtle, besides they get no where near that big.
