Welcome to Project Noah! This is a beautiful turtle. I am not as good about identifying reptiles but hopefully someone else can help with that.

I moved this out of the Signs of Wildlife mission because that mission is not for actual animals, just their signs, like tracks, scat, feathers, nests (without birds in them), webs (without spiders in them), and the like.

You could add this to the Reptiles of the World mission: http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/7970...
