Hard to tell from this distance but these appear to be red eared sliders. They look very similar to yellow bellied sliders. Where as Yellow bellied sliders live mostly in the east coast of the U.S., North Florida to Virginia area, Red Eared sliders live from West Texas up to Indiana. They kind of merge/blend throughout Alabama and are starting to share more habitat recently I believe.
That is a fun fact. Thank you!
When I worked in Panama City there were a bunch of Yellow Bellied Sliders that would be born each year in a pond and climb out and clammer around everywhere and they would get stepped on / run over so we'd constantly be picking them up in spring and bringing them back to the pond where we knew they came out of. (We'd see maybe 100 or so). I ended up putting one on my desk in a box to carry back one day and ended up taking it home for whatever reason. Almost 7 years later and dudes in my living room still 🤷
It's always fun taking a walk into the park and running into a few cute little babies.
Then you get too close and they all scurry away. No little ones, don't go! I won't hurt you! I just want to see you up close.
Probably for the best that they keep that instinct, unfortunately.
Luckily all my neighbors and I seem to be very good about giving the wildlife space, so they're not too afraid to be out in the open.
behold, dog!
I appreciate this comment so much. Praise the Sun!
I never thought that much about these type of animals but they are my wifes favorite type and over time I have found them to be really cool.
I saw the bigger ones from far away, but when I got close and the babies were sunbathing too, I went into full swoon.
I mean all Testudines to. The whole carrying around a shell is super cool.
