mediterranean gecko (hemidactylus turcicus)
cool, thanks for the heads up
I've been working at Archbold as an intern for the past few months, and have some good pictures of wildlife of the Florida scrub
Florida Softshell Turtle- (Apalone ferox)
yep yep, and they have that neat orange belly
Its an estuarine species (lives in mostly brackish water habitats, at the mouth of rivers) found up and down the east coast. They eat mostly marine invertebrates and they grow to 6-7in. Once considered a delicacy and widely harvested.
Yea its a shame. This is the only one I've seen in the past six months, and I've been living and working at a biological research station so I am out in the field almost everyday. Very cool snakes though.
Diamondback terrapin (Malaclemys terrapin)
