was driving to my boyfriends house and this fellow was crossing the road right in front of me!! Silly thing stopped right in the middle of the road too! I didnt want it run over because this road is generally pretty busy and I do see some roadkill on it from time to time, people dont pay attention to the speed limit and I could only imagine what could have happened if it wasnt me who came across the turtle at that exact time!!
So I did some very quick thinking (LOL!) Stopped the car in the middle of the road as theres no-where to stop over on the side! Grabbed the turtle, put him on the floor of the passenger side and drove to Sams house. He only lives 2mins down the road so its not all that bad, plus i wanted photos
Took him inside, showed the family and was happy i took him off the road, took some photos then Sam and I went back down the road and walked into the bush to the little stream/pond that runs there, (really nice habitat for a turtle, good water, plenty of basking spots and food there for it etc.) Basically where the turt would have been living before its treacherous journey across the black tar!
Yes so thats the story, here are the photos :lol:
OH and excuse the messy hair... I was half awake and wasn't out to impress anyone lol so its prettymuch my bed hair :lol::shock:
