Where to see a Painted Turtle in Alabama

The Painted Turtle is recorded in the counties of 8 Alabama state parks (research-grade iNaturalist observations). Ranked by how often it is observed in each area:

  1. Lake Guntersville State Park
  2. Cathedral Caverns State Park
  3. Chewacla State Park
  4. Weogufka State Forest
  5. DeSoto State Park
  6. Buck's Pocket State Park

These are county-level records โ€” the species is documented in the area around each park, which is a strong steer rather than a guarantee for the park itself.
