Did you know the Eastern Box Turtle was named after its ability to completely box up in its shell for protection when it feels threatened? Unfortunately, this doesn't protect them from vehicles. Most recently turtles have been more active in our Davis Bayou, Mississippi Area resulting in more turtles on the roadways. Please be on the lookout for turtles and stop to let them cross the road.

Box turtles are turtles of the genus Terrapene and are members of the American pond turtle family. They are found throughout North America, the eastern Gulf coast of Mexico, and the Yucatan Peninsula. Box turtles have a high-domed shell with a hinged lower shell, called the plastron, that enables the shell to be closed like a box.

Big Blue is a GIANT Box Turtle! 😳 The gulf coast box turtle (Terrapene carolina major) is the largest member of the box turtles found in North America. They can measure up to 9 inches in shell length and are very aquatic. Having slightly webbed feet enables them to cruise through aquatic environments and to submerge for prolonged periods. They will also bask like red eared sliders and painted turtles do! #boxturtle #animalfacts #gardenstatetortoise #funnyanimals #turtles #tortoises #otistheturt

Shell Yeah! Meet Florida’s Eastern Box Turtle. While box turtles can be found throughout Florida, the eastern box turtle only occurs in the Panhandle region.

Box turtles out in January!? Here in the south our weather can throw some delightful curve balls, like a mild early January. The Gulf coast box turtles take advantage of this weather and move about, bask, hydrate and settle back in. They do this each year and even in temps below 50F, as long as it’s sunny #turtles #wildlife #animals #boxturtle | Greg’s Turtle Haven

He's a little over a week old now and is certainly very spunky and seems perfectly normal, mentally. Physically, though, he is far from normal... | Central MS Turtle Rescue
