The midland painted turtle is cold-blooded, meaning it relies on external environmental temperatures to regulate its body heat. This ectothermic characteristic allows them to be more energy-efficient, as they do not need to generate their own body heat. Instead, they bask in the sun to warm up and seek shade or water to cool down as needed.
