Terrapin Station

[LordFerret]

No, not the album.

I found this little guy out in the street by my house, so a rescue was in order (before some heartless SOB ran it over, of which we've many here, people just don't care). I brought it into the house and put it in a big box, gave it a fresh strawberry to nosh on... but it was more interested in getting out of the box (of course). After dinner (mine) I took it back out to the woods, about 30 yards in from the roadway, and turned it loose at the edge of the marsh/stream ... and off it went 'Truckin'.

It's an Eastern Box Turtle, I don't often see many of them around here.

That defiant face. It is like "Unhand me, you filthy human, or you will regret it!"

My pet does that every time someone picks him up.. he tries to kill said person's arm.

Turtles, or whatever, are always pretty cool. Good that you got him(?) out of the street. Let's hope he doesn't wander onto another, or back.
