Florida, the trickster turtle!

This is one smart turtle, and one patient man.

The following links to a nearly-5-minute video showcasing this three-toed box turtle's talents. It is by far the most complete of the videos I found, though I don't like this link because, well, let's just say that this site makes me happy my local paper moderates its reader comments. Anyway, here it is:

Here is another link to an edited version, and this one has an interesting voiceover commentary (and gives more information about how the man uses Florida in therapy for kids):

Trained Turtle

And here's a nice little written story: Turtle tricks
