It is easy to handle, because it doesn't bite or snap. At feeding time it will eat bits of raw meat and fish and tender morsels of lettuce. While it doesn't stay in water all the time, it should have a small tank. tub. or basin in which to submerge. It especially likes to be" under water when eating. It seems to swallow better if its food is dropped on the surface, so it can reach up and take bites. With good care a Spotted Tur tle should live for a long time. The National Wildlife Federation reports that some of the black ?helled creatures have reached the age of forty. They are fairly easy to find. There are lots of them all the way from Maine to Florida, and west to Indiana and Michigan The place to look for them is in small pools and ponds, in woods near streams, and in grassy marshes. They always stay close to water md to patches of plants where they can hide. When left alone, they spend much of their time looking for food. In the outdoors, where there is no one to feed them, they eat beetles, flies, di.'gonflies, worms, spiders, and tadpoles'. Along about November each year, the Spotted Turtles go into hiding for the winter. They burrow into mud. and there they stay un til the ground begins to warm up in the early spring Sometime after they crawl out Into the sun. the female lays from two to four smalt, white eggs and covers them with sand. After about eighty days, the eggs hatch into young. Like their parents, the habies are black, and they have yellow spots. When fully grown, they have shells which are about five inches long, three inches wide, and a little more than an inch high. Though they are abundant over a wide area, Spotted Turtles neith er help nor harm man. They are simply shy little creatures which ire interesting to find and watch, and perhaps keep as pets.
