River cooters are mainly herbivores. They feed on aquatic plants, grasses, and algae. Younger ones tend to seek a more protein enriched diet such as aquatic invertebrates, crustaceans, and fish. Older turtles may occasionally seek prey as well but mostly partake of a herbivorous diet.

In captivity, cooters need an aquatic habitat, with a dry basking area. They need a warming light and UVB radiation (from reptilelights or direct sunshine). As juveniles, they can be kept in a 20- or 30-gallon long tank, but they will outgrow those accommodations, and need a very large tank or outdoor pond.

This native turtle is medium sized, with sexually mature adults ranging in carapace size from just under 7 to nearly 10 inches. Females are the larger sex, while the males are much smaller.
