Looks like a wood turtle... pretty rare nowadays in these parts. Oddly enough, I saw a roadkilled turtle on my way back from the airport today... it was sad; I like turtles.

I saw a flat squirrel when I was walking the dog.  Talk about roadkill...it was paper thin!

I always wanted to see what a turtle looked like without it's shell, prolly like a lizard.

Something horribly like an abortion I should imagine. :P

Probably cause the shell is part of them.  Cartoons make people think that turtle shells are like sea shells making turtles like hermit crabs.  Well people, TURTLES ARENT CRABS! ;D

I always wondered if a turtle without it's shell would be homeless or naked!
