Introduction to the species of the wood-grained turtle "Gopiania wood-grained turtle"
The wood turtle genus Rhinoclemmys is the only member of the freshwater turtle family Geoemydidae native to the American continent. There are 9 independent species, and some species have subspecies. The Gebiyan wood-grained turtle is one of them. This is a turtle with a completely black belly carapace and a beautiful-looking carapace, so it is also called a black-bellied wood-grained turtle.
The wood turtle is the largest species in the genus Clemmys. It is mainly distributed in two areas. One is in the northeastern states of the United States and spreads to Canada; the other is in the areas around the Great Lakes. The scattered area is relatively large. Because the habitat is close to cold areas, the North American wood turtle is a turtle species that can withstand severe cold temperatures. Even at a temperature of 5 degrees Celsius, they are still very active and often do not eat until the temperature is above 15 degrees Celsius. If the temperature is lower than 5 degrees, they will still hide in the mud at the bottom of the river.
