Found this Turtle in our back yard! We live in southern California. Don't know how this turtle got here! Please let us know how to take care of it. Thanks Jane

It's a red eared slider, one of the most common pet turtles. Not native to your area. A quick google search should get you all the care information you need.

Thanks! I found that out from friends and the Turtle is now safe and being cared for by someone who has others.
