Information about the Ornate Box Turtle:
The Ornate Box Turtle, sometimes called the Western Box
Turtle, is one of only two terrestrial turtles that inhabit
the Great Plains of the US. They range from Indiana in the
west to southern South Dakota and southeast Wyoming and
south to Texas and Louisiana. These turtles prefer areas
with sandy soils, dry prairies and oak savannahs. This turtle
requires deep sandy soil to burrow into in order to hibernate
for the winter. During the warm summer months the box turtle
will stay near wooded edges in order to avoid overheating.
It is the state reptile of Kansas.
