Abstract
I report of finding six adult Red-eared sliders dead in an artificial pond in a park in Sofia, Bulgaria and stipulate on potential causes. I compare this case to similar occurrences in Bulgaria and elsewhere. Briefly, I discuss the potential issues from the presence of this non-native turtle, especially in small, isolated ponds. My aim is to draw attention of researchers to this unexplained mortality, encourage them to report similar observations and work towards finding the exact cause.
