I bought this turtle at a Miami flea market for two reasons. One, he was very cute and two, he was cheap. I really like this turtle. His name is Simba because of a blotch on his plastron that looked like Simba the lion's face, but I have no idea what he is. He was a hatchling and now he is a juvenile. Another problem is that as he has grown, his identification marks have disappeared. He is a very dark color now with a light plastron and some pale stripes on his head and legs.

Please help me solve this mystery that I have in my possession. I haven't figured out how to post pictures, but I will include my myspace page so you can see many pictures of Simba. Thank you for your time.
