A friend of mine found this guy in a cherry farm while they went cherry picking in Northern California.

So who am I?? A desert tortoise?

Oh you guys...that's not a tortoise. It's a water turtle. I don't think it's an A. marmorata, though. It looks like a slider to me. If you can ask your friend to wet the tortoise and clean it off so we can better see the 'design' on the carapace, we can give you a better answer.

They been good, they did the right thing, they only took picture of this guy, did not touch him, did not taking him home.

So we can only work from the three picture we have.

If it is a turtle, he is very far away from any body of water. Best luck to his guy.

I'm not sure what it is but he's beautiful.
And hopefully found his way home okay.
Thanks for posting, Steven.
