Pre-Recorded Turtle Videos

Here are some pre-recorded videos of the turtles from angles that you won't see on the live feed. The turtles are Southern painted turtles (Chrysemys picta dorsalis).

Except where indicated, the "dry" videos were shot using a Logitech C922 Pro Stream webcam and captured using Open Broadcaster Software. The underwater videos and some of the "dry" videos were shot using a GoPro camera. The tank is located in my office, so on the videos with sound, you may here things like phones ringing or keyboards being tapped away at from time to times. Any conversations have been muted out for privacy reasons.

These videos used to be on YouTube, but I have moved them to Vimeo to provide a more-pleasant, ad-free viewing experience.
