NORTHERN RED-BELLIED COOTER (Pseudemys rubriventris)
May, 2020 - By Koaw (Video uploaded to YouTube June, 2019)
The goal was to find my white whale, a giant snapping turtle in my nearby lake. I wanted to teach my niece about that very cool species. Alas, we couldn’t find the sleeping giant.
But many other turtles were spotted and I ended up temporarily getting a lovely red-bellied cooter for a bit of show-and-tell.
