Original – African helmeted turtle (Pelomedusa subrufa), Phinda Private Game Reserve, South Africa
Reason
High quality large image. FP on Commons. Renominated. Received 4 support votes; no opposes. This is a ‘behaviour’ image showing how the turtle withdraws its feet when threatened (in this case by our vehicle as it was in the middle of the road). Also shows head clearly.
