Red-eared Slider

Maybe because of their sweet temperament!

Fair point :) I didn't realise they were so widespread, although I'm pretty sure this guy was placed here, but still...

I'm not knocking your spotting, by the way. It's a very good one. :-) I just lament the fact that this turtle species is in a lot of places it should not be.

It seems to be true... red-eared sliders are everywhere. My friends in the herp community joke that they're "the cockroaches of the reptile world." I think I would be saddened to go across the world and see one living wild.

Thanks for the comments, favourites and ID help!

Very nice!

Great pictures MJ!
