Tortoises, box turtles and mud turtles are all found in deserts of North America.
Pet store,creek,lake or on shores.
Snapping turtles are found in freshwater habitats such as ponds, lakes, marshes, and rivers in North America. They prefer areas with plenty of vegetation and muddy bottoms where they can hide and ambush their prey. They are mostly aquatic but will come onto land to lay eggs or find new habitats.
No, alligator snapping turtles do not typically live in the Midwest United States. They are primarily found in the southeastern U.S., particularly in rivers and lakes in states like Florida, Louisiana, and Texas. Their habitat preference is for slow-moving freshwater environments. In the Midwest, you might find other species of snapping turtles, but not the alligator snapping turtle.

The animal finds it's water at it's habitat which would be in ponds, lakes, or rivers.
Canada routinely refuses immigration rights to Alligator Snapping Turtles. Most remain in the American deep south.

Aquatic turtles, such as snapping turtles and red-eared sliders, live for several decades, and can potentially outlive human beings. I remember reading an article about the oldest known aquatic turtle still alive in the United States; it was around 60 years old (almost as old as its owner). I tried to find the article again, but I couldn't. Sorry. Sea turtles can live even longer; it is not unusual for them to live well past 100 years old.
