The Eastern Mud Turtle is kinda in the middle of the food chain because they are hunted by alligators, muskrats, racoons, and other turtles. All of those animals keep the musk turtle in the middle but the biggest predator of all IS MAN!!!!

Upemba mud turtle was created in 1981.
yes it is
yes, they are. although I would not recommend turtles as a good kid pet anyway. if you are going to give your child a turtle, mud turtles are a good beginner turtle. as are box turtles. I have three turtles, a mud turtle, a box turtle, and a spotted turtle, and I am 13. Although it is also a question of how responsible you or your child is.
The white lipped mud turtle is a carnivore. It eats things like fish and other aquatic life, and even other types of turtle.
It really depends on which lake you are talking about. It normally goes algae, small fish, maybe a water snake, alligator turtle, to a hawk. That's just one variation though. There are thousands of combinations you can make, but a food web really brings all of the possibilities together.
