• The Pearl River Map Turtle, scientifically known as Graptemys pearlensis, is a unique and fascinating species of turtle native to the Pearl River in Louisiana and Mississippi. These turtles are characterized by their striking appearance, with intricate and colorful patterns on their shells that closely resemble geographic maps, hence their name. The Pearl River Map Turtle is a medium-sized turtle, with females growing to around 8-10 inches in length and males slightly smaller at around 5-7 inches. They have webbed feet and a pointed beak, which they use for hunting prey in the water.One interesting aspect of the Pearl River Map Turtle is their habitat and behavior. These turtles prefer slow-moving waters with sandy or muddy bottoms, where they can bask in the sun and hunt for food. They are mainly carnivorous, feeding on a diet of insects, crustaceans, and small fish. Pearl River Map Turtles are also known for their shy and elusive nature, often retreating to the safety of the water when approached by humans or predators. They are excellent swimmers and are known to spend long periods of time underwater, only coming up to the surface for air.
