Here’s some rare footage of a wild Bog Turtle (Glyptemys muhlenbergii) escaping into his tunnel. They dig these small tunnels to use as hibernacula during the winter, and in the spring, they emerge from among the roots to forage, bask, and mate throughout the fen’s thick tussocks of sedges/grasses and clumps sphagnum moss.

What’s small (reaching a maximum size of 4.5 inches), has a shell, and a distinctive orange patch on each side of its head?

It’s a bog turtle, not a big turtle. When they’re born, bog turtles are the size of a quarter. As adults, they’re only four inches. Watch as ARC Southern Appalachian Program Coordinator Mike Knoerr shows off a young bog turtle he found and some of the habitat from our bog turtle program. Although bog turtles are little, our program to recover them is big. For starters, to find remaining populations, we use machine learning that identifies habitat from aerial photography. We also often look for b
