Wood Turtle
Spotted Turtle
Eastern Box Turtle

For the full disclosure, including the minimum size requirement here's the link: http://www.dnr.state.md.us/wildlife/captive.asp

I don't care how you feel. Live and let live- tree hugger or otherwise. But if you're going to give information, especially something that can be easily researched, make sure it's right or at least add a simple "IIRC."

*Disclaimer* The above is in reference to turtles only since this is a turtle thread; eventhough Ink posted about ALL animals. The link does provide for information on other herps. I don't know what the law is for other animals, nor am I going to pretend to. I'm sure it should be relatively easy to find.

WOW! You'd think a wildlife rehaber would know that. . . .
