About Mississippi Map Turtle
The Mississippi Map Turtle (Graptemys pseudogeographica kohni) is an aquatic turtle that includes 14 species of turtles in the genus Graptemys with patterns on the shell that look similar to the contour lines of heights on an elevation map. This type of turtle is very fond of strong currents and deep water. This is because the Mississippi Map Turtle comes from rivers with strong currents.
