Golden Python (Albino Burmese Python)
The golden 'patternless' morph of the Burmese python - a revered, wholly captive-bred albino that cannot survive in the wild. A giant, gentle snake; private keeping needs a permit in China.
Radiated Tortoise
One of the most beautiful star-patterned tortoises - a Madagascan CITES I species that is common in captivity yet wild-endangered. 'The rich man's sulcata'; hardy if set up right.
Large-headed Turtle
A Chinese-endemic 'big-head' turtle that looks like a Reeves' but with a huge triangular head it cannot retract - a threatened, somewhat delicate water turtle.
Eastern Box Turtle (Carolina Box Turtle)
The familiar Carolina box turtle of eastern North America - high-domed, fireworks-patterned, and a classic (if pricey) beginner-terrestrial box turtle. Loves soaking but cannot swim.
Map Turtle
A variable, attractive North American water turtle with a raised midline keel and fine 'map' line-markings. Sensitive to poor water quality - keep the tank clean. The common pet forms are the Mississippi and false map turtles.
Spiny Turtle
The 'sun turtle' - a bizarre, spiky juvenile that sadly loses most of its spikes with age. CITES II and wild-imported specimens often arrive near death; a delicate, specialist turtle.
White-lipped Mud Turtle
A strikingly pretty mud-turtle relative - the 'mango-head' morph can flush yellow onto limbs and shell. Friendly and mid-priced, but it cannot brumate and must be kept heated year-round.
Pancake Tortoise
A flat, flexible, rock-crevice tortoise (Malacochersus tornieri) that flees instead of hiding - a fast, escape-prone, CITES II conservation concern.
Common Snapping Turtle
The familiar 'small croc' - the most common and cheapest of the four Chelydra subspecies, hardy and pugnacious; a meat/farm turtle more than a pet.
Angonoka (Ploughshare) Tortoise
One of the world's ten most endangered turtles - fewer than 1,000 left in Madagascar, CITES I, and effectively not tradable. Education-only profile.
