I'm thinking about getting a pet turtle. What should I know?

1. You will need to provide the turtle with an appropriately sized tank, as well as plenty of hiding places and other items it can explore.
2. Turtles are omnivores, so you may want to consider providing them with a varied diet that includes both plants and meat.
3. Turtles require frequent water changes and regular cleaning of their tanks, so make sure you have access to clean water and a filter system.
4. Turtle habitats also need to be kept at around 75-80 degrees Fahrenheit (24-26 degrees Celsius) for proper temperature regulation.
5. It is important to keep your turtle's environment safe from predators such as raccoons, foxes and skunks.
