Spieces identification

I live in oklahoma and I found this tortoise. I was wondering the spieces.

Sure looks like a box turtle to me.
Let's hear from the collective as to the exact type.....

That's definately a box turtle. 3 toed or eastern I'm guessing.

Yes, a box turtle and if native to your area likely a wild and needs to be released back to the wild.
@HermanniChris @Markw84 @Anthony P may be able to positively ID what kind of Box so you can look it up to see if native.

 

[HermanniChris]

Three toed box turtle (Terrapene carolina triunguis).

If you do release, try to put it very close to where you found it.

Her paw was torn off, that's why I picked her up

Thankyou to everybody who commented

That’s so sad about her paw. I hope she’s doing ok now. Well keep us updated please good luck.
