The Turtles Are Out Sunning Themselves
(Chrysemys picta) a pond turtle native to North America. Fossils show that the painted turtle existed 15 million years ago. They eat aquatic vegetation, algae, and small water creatures including insects, crustaceans, and fish. Although they are frequently consumed as eggs or hatchlings by rodents, canines, and snakes, the adult turtles' hard shells protect them from most predators. Reliant on warmth from its surroundings, the painted turtle is active only during the day when it basks for hours on logs or rocks. During winter, they hibernate, in the mud at the bottom of water bodies. The turtles mate in spring and autumn. Females dig nests on land and lay eggs between late spring and mid-summer. Adults in the wild can live for more than 55 years.
