The European pond turtle (Emys orbicularis), also called the European pond terrapin, is a long-living freshwater species of turtle. It is found in southern and central Europe, West Asia and North Africa.

The smooth newt, also known as the common newt (Lissotriton vulgaris; formerly Triturus vulgaris) is a species of amphibian, the most common newt of the genus Lissotriton. It is found throughout Europe, except the far north, areas of Southern France and the Iberian Peninsula.
