When I was kid growing up just a few miles from Philadelphia in Eastern Delaware County, it was common to see box turtles. I even had one as a pet for few days before releasing it, although I realize now that wasn't very smart.
I know the reasons for their declining numbers but they are found in all 67 counties in PA and I've read PA is a stronghold in the Northeast, but I haven't seen a box turtle in ANY county in PA since I last saw one walking across my backyard in Northampton County close to 30 years ago.
Anybody seeing box turtles where they live, work or play?
