To get to the other side of course!  With over 25 different kinds of turtles located in the Sunshine state, Florida is home to roughly 8% of the world’s chelonian species.  These lovable reptiles can be found everywhere, from dry pineland habitats to salty mangrove thickets.  Find out why Florida’s turtles are more than just slow and steady creatures.
