Wood Turtle (Clemmys insculpta)

Posing for my camera, is a Wisconsin–threatened species, the Wood Turtle. Biking along the Bearskin Trail in northern Wisconsin this Fall, I see a dark mound ahead on the path. I suspected a snapping turtle. To my surprise, it was a turtle I had never seen before, a Wood Turtle. This turtle lives amongst the forested land along river and streams (riparian wetlands).
