Turtles were here in the time of the dinosaurs. Pond turtles eat small insects, fish, aquatic invertebrates, frogs, snakes, birds and mammals. A turtle can live 250 years.

The Western Pond Turtle is the only native freshwater turtle on the Pacific Coast. In many places Pond Turtles have been replaced by the larger, more aggressive Red-eared Sliders that pet owners have released into the wild. The Pond Turtle is now an endangered species.
