\"Painted Turtle,\" Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. The head of the turtle is distinctive. The face has only yellow stripes, with a large yellow spot and streak behind each eye, and on the chin two wide yellow stripes that meet at the tip of the jaw. The turtle\'s upper jaw is shaped into an inverted \"V\" (philtrum), with a downward-facing, tooth-like projection on each side
