*** About Red-eared Slider Turtles: Native to the southern United States, Red-eared Slider Turtles (Trachemys scripta elegans) are commonly recognized by the distinctive red stripe near their ear area. Adaptable yet reliant on aquatic habitats, these turtles thrive best in warm, slow-moving waters where they can sunbathe, forage, and navigate the lush vegetation.
