welcome to the board Smile

all i can say is that it's a semi-aquatic. check this link http://www.austinsturtlepage.com/world_of_turtles/index-3.html
it doesn't require registration u can look at the pix and identify ur turtle cz many species look similar and u know it better, piz don't show everything.

btw, where are u from? Kuwait, KSA..close to Dubai, I live there Rolling Eyes

Kinda looks like a mix breed....the head is too thin and looks like a map or cooter shape, and the shell pattern looks like a columbian slider....any way to get pics from the top and the bottom of it? If I could see the belly and the back better it might help!

I've seen many turtles with such long necks. I don't know if these are what they call snakenecks but it's a "foreigner" for sure.
