'''Pond turtles''' are a common source of [[food]] and one of the few sources of [[shell|shells]]. They can be found in any pool of water and are gathered by [[fishing]]. Pond turtles can also be found by digging into an [[aquifer]] or by creating water outside the area of pre-existing water sources such as [[river]]s or [[cavern]] water. One tile is sufficient, so long as the fishing zone covers only that one tile. | '''Pond turtles''' are a common source of [[food]] and one of the few sources of [[shell|shells]].

| − | To harvest a shell, the | + | To harvest a shell, the pond turtle must be processed at a [[Fishery]]. This will produce a [[shell|pond turtle shell]] and an edible pond turtle. Currently one stack of pond turtles [5] will only produce one shell due to bug 808. {{bug|0808}} If a pond turtle is eaten before it is processed, no shell will be produced. |

| − | + | When you buy an empty cage from the traders, there's a chance you will get a vermin inside, including pond turtles, however, you can't get a shell from a tame pet pond turtle you bought from a caravan. | |
| − | + | The only way you can get a shell from pond turtles is by having a fisherdwarf perform the fishing labor, producing a raw pond turtle, which is then taken to a fishery and processed to get a shell and a pond turtle food item. Even if you release that tame vermin and it gets killed by a [[cat]] or caught in a [[door]] or [[web]], the only result will be pond turtle remains, not a raw pond turtle you can take to a fisherdwarf's workshop and process to get a shell. | |
