Hi all! My father found this little guy in his yard...we think someone either lost it, or tossed it, cause it sure doesn't seem like a local NY species.... Thanks, and hope everyone is well!

Need more photos.......head-on, underbelly, etc. With all I can see here, it looks to be a young native Common Map Turtle, or possibly a non-native (to N.Y.) Red Eared Slider?

Cool, thanks guys! His garden is miles from a water source, so we're guessing someone chucked it in...
