Happy Naturalist Trivia Tuesday! All this rain has really brought some joy to our Box Turtle friends and caused them to be more out and about. While Box Turtles can often be mistaken for Tortoises and share many similarities, which of these is an identifier to tell the two apart? a) Box Turtles are smaller b) Box Turtles have hinged shell that gives them the ability to completely enclose their head and limbs c) Box Turtles have slightly webbed feet and sharper claws d) All of the above Let us know in the comments!
