I just found a BABY MUSK TURTLE! Baby turtles, (called hatchlings) come out of the egg miniature versions of their parents, and are on their own from day one. This hatchling loggerhead musk turtle is among the smallest hatchling turtles in the world, and has to become adept at hiding and navigating cracks, crevices and micro habitats the first few years of life, if it hopes to make it to becoming an adult loggerhead musk turtle. #turtles #muskturtle #sternotherus #nature #wildlife #animals #baby

A hatchling loggerhead musk turtle is about the size of your thumbnail, and a large adult is barely the size of an iPhone. Small turtles with big heads that enjoy munching snails in clear flowing streams and springs #turtles #muskturtle #loggerheadmuskturtle #sternotherus #sternotherusminor #animalreels #reelsinstagram #turtlereels #reptilereels | Greg’s Turtle Haven
