Posted: Fri May 07, 2010 9:47 pm I rescued a turtle from the road, what is it? pics
I was driving on a dirt road in the "sticks" part of town and immediatly noticed a small/medium sized turtle in the middle of the road. I didn't have time to stop, so I drove over it (it was inbetween the tires) and stopped. I got out and picked him up. He seemed to be some sort of box turtle, but he was clearly headed to a water source. I didn't want to drop him
in the water for fear he couldn't swim, so I put him a few inches from it. Immediatly, he ran right into the water and swam away! Definitely aquatic, but his feet didn't appear webbed. His shell was hinged.
