I am not familiar with the yellow-bellied slider. They look a lot like the red-eared, but for the red ears. Those poor little fellas were sold everywhere to everyone in dime stores in the 60s. Few survived. I had a few, but my parents got a tank and heat lamp and all, so mine fared a bit better.

Mike,

I remember when I was in grade school, I began noticing that the only time I'd ever see a turtle was in the warmer months and frequently trying to cross the road. That's when I began searching for them every time we got into the car. :)
