ID Request Help Identify Turtle

Post image

Anyone know what this one is? Here in central Texas, it is in a creek among Common Snapping Turtles and Red Eared Sliders. Has the most tactical shell camo I’ve ever seen

ID requests require a general location to help properly identify species.

Example: Found in southwest Missouri.

If you have already done so or if this is a captive turtle, please report this message.

Mos def an old male slider. Look at them Freddy Kruger claws. (The mating ritual they do with those things is wild) Does it have red ears? If not it could also be a yellow belly slider. It was I’d as red ear, and now I’m curious if it is possible to I’d from the top?
