What’s a Cooter???

The term “cooter” originated in the deep south as slang for a turtle. Generally the term was used for a loggerhead turtle, but it is commonly used for all turtles including sea turtles and snapping turtles. Since many turtles are on the endangered species list, join us in saving the loggerheads and sea turtles from extintion.
