This is not a Christmas decoration...
It's a Red-eared Slider.
The red-eared slider (Trachemys scripta elegans), also known as red-eared terrapin, is a semiaquatic turtle belonging to the family Emydidae. It is a subspecies of the pond slider. It is the most popular pet turtle in the United States.
Can you tell I visited the museum for my blip today?
So, this may be the most popular pet turtle in the USA, but it doesn't appear that this poor guy's owner took very good care of it... just kidding.
I actually thought the way they displayed this was very cool, and I liked the shadows, too. Hope you enjoy it.
