Abstract

The article offers information on the turtle fauna in Hogle Zoo, Salt Lake City, Utah in November 2015. Topics discussed include two female spotted turtles Clemmys guttata that were enclosed in a long aquaterrarium, an agile female yellow-botched map turtle Graptemys flavimaculata which has a mainly carnivorous diet, and the generally inactive Gopher tortoise Gopherus agassizzi. Also noted is the pancake tortoise Malacochersus tornieri that hide between rocks when danger arises.
