Sternotherus carinatus — Keeled Musk Turtle

The Keeled Musk Turtle is a slightly larger North American musk turtle species distinguished by a prominent central keel running along its carapace. Found in slow rivers, swamps, and bayous of the southeastern United States, it is more aquatic than many basking turtles. Its manageable size and hardiness make it a popular choice among turtle enthusiasts.
