🐢 Turtle Talk 🐢
What do Eastern Box Turtles Eat?
Darwin's favorite food is shrimp, but what do most Eastern Box Turtles eat? Box Turtles are omnivores, meaning they will eat almost anything! As adults, they mostly eat plant material, like seeds, fruits, roots, fungi, and grasses. And if "fungi" sounds gross to you, remember that humans eat it too! Yay for mushrooms!
You can invite Linda and Darwin to visit your school, library, community center, or bookstore! To request an author read aloud or speaker event, send an email to events@lindaslab.org.
