Reptile-Amphibian #1 — Spiny Softshell

trionyx spiniferus

Monday, May 9, 1983 — 3:00 pm

Woolly Hollow State Park, Arkansas

At Woolly Hollow, a small stream has been dammed to create a small lake in a hollow. I walked the path around the lake, then walked along the entrance road which runs along the shore about 30 feet above the water.

The soft-shell turtle was lying on a log along the shore with other turtles. It dropped into the water as I approached.
