Florida box turtle
This turtles reaches an average length of 5-6 1/2 inches. This turtle's shell sits higher and arches, unlike the appearance of other more water-loving turtles. They have several light colored lines running down the shell sides. These are dry-land turtles, not an aquatic turtle people are more familiar with.
