NOEL KING, HOST:
In Alabama, a big discovery was made recently...
PETER SCOTT: People call it the intermediate musk turtle or aliflora (ph) musk turtle.
KING: ...A turtle. That is Peter Scott. He's a postdoc researcher at UCLA, and we talked to him on Skype about his turtle discovery.
SCOTT: It's a small turtle, about 3 or 4 inches long as an adult. They kind of have chocolate-colored shells with darker markings on them. They have a beautifully spotted head and kind of a striped neck. They are kind of puggish-like little turtles.
DAVID GREENE, HOST:
I think they sound kind of cute, don't they?
KING: (Laughter).=READ MORE AND LISTEN TO RECORDING
