In the river with a big female spiny Softshell turtle! These amazing animals are perfectly adapted to their riverine habitat, with paddle-like feet, a low streamlined leathery shell, and long neck with snorkel nose. Can you tell the difference between this and the Florida Softshell? Let me know in the comments #conservation #wildlife #nature #animals #turtles #softshellturtle | Greg’s Turtle Haven

Some turtles are built for speed! Spiny softshell turtles are often found basking on the banks of slow-moving rivers. When frightened, these turtles can clock up to 15 miles per hour on their way back to the water! -JFK, Naturalist | Cleveland Metroparks
