Last week while checking out swamps and ponds for birds I came across Endangered Spotted Turtles at four different places throughout the state. Yes you read that right, Spotted Turtles are very rare in Rhode Island. So needless to say seeing them in four places was really exciting.
Knowing that these turtles are extremely rare I sent an email to the RI DEM herp biologist to let him know the locations. I know this is a short post, but thought these guys may be of some interest. Photos below
