She simply does not sound like she is in an area it would be indigenous to. But, without her actual location, all I can do is doubt, and not be sure. I am aware that there are box turtles indigenous to parts of the united states, but that does not mean they can live anywhere in the U.S.

Even if it is in a state it naturally occurs in, it wouldn't be in a busy city area.
