Shipping an Aquatic Turtle

I would like to ship an aquatic turtle from California to Ohio.
This turtle is a red ear slider with a 12" shell. A somewhat boring ho-hum turtle but entirely loveable and no longer comfortable in its current home.

It seems like a preposterous idea. Just wondering if anyone knows how one could go about doing it.

these seem like reliable sources with specific instructions; I figure if you read them all it will give you a good general idea how to do it safely. And hurry up and do it soon before it gets too much hotter outside.
