Saw-shell Turtle

Done! : )

No worries! They are tricky, they all look pretty similar. I knew it wasn't a Krefft's just by looking at it (we get a lot of Krefft's into care) but it was my husband that suggested the ID of saw-shelled turtle - I had no idea!!! : )

Hey Leanne, I think this might actually be a saw-shelled turtle (Wollumbinia latisternum). Check out these sites and see what you think: http://www.arod.com.au/arod/reptilia/Testudines/Cheluidae/Wollumbinia/latisternum) http://www.australianfreshwaterturtles.com.au/forum/showthread.php?4637-Need-help-identifying-your-turtle-(warning-lots-of-images) Krefft's have a much smoother head and neck, and the shell shape is different. They also have a yellow stripe on the face. http://www.arod.com.au/arod/reptilia/Testudines/Cheluidae/Emydura/macquarii
