Interpretation. 1  Opiates are the natural or synthetic drugs that have a morphine-like pharmacological action. 2  Heroin (diacetylmorphine) is a synthetic opiate made from morphine and is rarely detectable in body fluids. 3  Ingestion of bakery products containing poppy seeds can also cause morphine to be excreted in urine.
Western pond turtles are omnivorous and most of their animal diet includes insects, crayfish and other aquatic invertebrates. Fish, tadpoles, and frogs are eaten occasionally, and carrion is eaten when available. Plant foods include filamentous algae, lily pads, tule and cattail roots.
Mud turtles, like many aquatic turtles, prefer to eat in the water. This can, however, lead to bacterial growth in their habitat. Feed the turtles in a small plastic container near their water to help cut down on the mess in their tank. Feed the mud turtles 2 to 3 times a week, and provide plenty of calcium supplements and Vitamin D3 if kept indoors.
