About *Alden (Turtle) in Brighton

*Alden is waiting for you at Adams County Animal Shelter in Brighton, CO 80601. Red eared sliders are hardy and fascinating pets. These aquatic turtles can live for 20+ years with proper care. They require an appropriately sized tank and UVB light/heat in order to thrive. Most red eared sliders tolerate handling, but need little hands on attention and are ideal for homes that prefer a more independent pet. They are also a great option for homes with allergies to pet dander.
