The Back Story:

Wood Turtle - (Clemmys insculpta) 

The most prominent feature of the Wood Turtle’s medium brown shell are sculptured growth rings that look like wood grained cross-sections of a branch. When the shell is dry, its sections have a spider-web pattern.  The wood turtle is semi-aquatic, living along forested rivers and streams. They prefer moderate to fast-flowing water and are omnivorous, eating both plant and animal matter. 

The Wood Turtle is endangered, primarily because of water pollution in its habitat which includes the New England states, Eastern Canada, and in the northern woods of the Mid-West.
