Mississippi map turtles are rarely sold in stores. The easiest way is to buy online. I got mine from turtlesale.com, and he's extremely healthy. I took him to a vet when I got him, and they were amazed at how healthy he was, and even asked what website I used to suggest to others who were looking.
the answer to that is yes well, sort of, a map turtle is a variety of species: Mississippi map turtle Texas map turtle Cagle's map turtle Black knobbed map turtle Ouachita map turtle P.s. if you want to get a map turtle you should get the Texas map turtle! the males at full maturity get to about 3.5 inches
nothing
they like deep clean water to dive
Yes, if they are in a natural environment that has cold winters. Otherwise, in warmer natural environments and in captivity, they don't. You can unnaturally induce hibernation in a turtle, but this is not recommended as it can easily go wrong, endangering your Mississippi map turtle's life!

that is not true a sea turtle bites when it wants a mate i know i had two
