I loved collecting tortoises and turtles when I was kid. I had a 10 inch diameter Red Eared Slider that would just hang out in the tiny pond created by the A/C condensate at Mom’s house in San Antonio. He would come out of the water when I put some food out and then go back in. That son of bitch would bite and bite hard if you ever got a finger in striking distance. You had to be real careful around him. He finally ran off one day and he was faster than you think. If you ever catch a softshell out on land you might be real surprised too. Check this out:
