Best teachers about animals are animals. Sometimes watching them in the wild( if they aren't spooked and run like you have an axe) really gives you a good idea of their habitat, diet and behavior Like Tom Crutchfield says, "Just shut up and watch!" ?Thanks; I always prefer to hear this from someone with broad experience.
I wouldn’t have thought they’d eat acorns but as we say at our house, turtles do what they want. No cares as to what we think.
