These are not the typical boxes you open up this time of year…they’re box turtles! 🎁 A box turtle is a type of turtle capable of completely sealing itself inside its shell.

Meet the eastern box turtle! 🐢 They can be identified by their domed shell that has blotches of yellow, orange, brown, and black. 🐢 They are terrestrial, meaning they live predominantly on land. 🐢 They are called “box turtles” because they can completely close their lower shells and box themselves in. 🐢 Males have red eyes while females have brown or dark red eyes. 🐢 We think they are stunning, gorgeous, beautiful, and amazing.
