In Indiana, the river cooter is listed as an endangered species.

Pseudemys concinna is the species known as the River cooter.

It is one of two species of cooter native to the state, the other being the Eastern River Cooter.

River Cooter Turtles are among the highlights at the Tennessee Aquarium, the largest freshwater aquarium in the world.

"Turtle people are a little more patient than the average people," said Barbara Reader, a lawyer who has owned a river cooter named Timmy for 42-and-a-half of her 47 years.

The Texas river cooter (Pseudemys texana) is a species of freshwater turtle native to creeks, rivers, and lakes of the US state of Texas.

One particular distinctive feature of the Eastern River Cooter is that they have the ability to breathe underwater through a sac called the cloaca bursae which is based in their tail.

It is sometimes considered a subspecies of the coastal plain cooter (P. floridana) when that turtle is not itself considered a subspecies of the river cooter (P. concinna).

After detecting what may be a pheromone signal while sniffing at a female's tail, a male river cooter will court a female by swimming above her, vibrating his long nails and stroking her face.
