Found turtle/tortoise

Posted by Linda on March 22, 2001 at 15:32:54:

I had a friend find this turtle/tortoise. I think it might be some sort of asian box turtle, but I am not sure. It is about 10 inches long. A brown color, fairly flat shell. The back edge of the shell is slightly serrated, with a v notch in the center of the back. The plastron is yellowish with brown blotches. It does not have a hinged plastron. I am trying to attach a picture, hopefully this works. Everytime I try to take a pic it retreats back into its shell.
