Mauremys leprosa
Also known as Spanish pond turtle, there were quite a number of them in this artificial pond.
Urban and artificial setting, a pond in Yves Saint Laurent museum in Marrakech.
In general, I would not post shots of animals seen in captivity; but here I made an exception as this is a species occurring in limited area - southern Spain, Portugal and Morocco, and it was a first time I saw it...
