 Turtles - There are over 250 species of turtles. The turtles that are known best are snapping turtles, painted turtles, box turtles, and sea turtles. Did you know that turtles shed their shells? It's true most turtles will shed pieces of their shell. Others mostly just knock peices of their shell by hitting a rock. The largest turtles are Leatherbacked sea turtles. Turtles are high sources of meat and iron.

 Frogs and Toads -  Bull frogs are the largest frogs. You know when it is a bull frog because of its loud screech and its gulping. They love to go on the street at night because of the moisture in the air, and to hunt for bugs. That is why you find toad's flattened on the road sometimes.
