Default Turtles and ponds

I'm toying with the idea of keeping turtles in my (unlined) pond. I say
"toying" because there may be some real obstacles. Among them is water
temperature. Are there any "warm water" turtles? I stuck a thermometer
in
the pond water and it said 88. Sounds pretty warm to me. Seems like I
might need a low fence (how high can turtles jump?) around the pond. Are
they real territorial and aggressive, or will they live in harmony in
fairly large groups? $1800.95 for a turtle
(http://www.turtlesale.com/home/index...turtles-page-1
and scroll to the bottom)? I can just barely conceive of a turtle selling
for $1800, but I can't figure out the 95 cents at all.

==============================
That's not what I see there. RES are only $9.95 each. Three for $28.95
etc.
