Reptiles with beautiful names




Non native turtle species were spotted in Lithuanian waters. One of them- the red-eared slider.  People buy tiny cute turtles and later, when the pet becomes a 27 cm monster, gets rid of it. Usually by "setting it free" in some meadow.
This one is capable of surviving our winter.
A native snake. It's called a yellow cheeked snake in Lithuanian. But people usually recognize it from it's yellow "ears".
