Tom L Posted May 29, 2014 Report Share Posted May 29, 2014 A few years back, I recued a baby painted turtle on a 2-lanes road close to my house. He was on the paint in the middle of the road. One side of the road was a pond and the other side was just grass and trees. I put him on the pond side, but I have been since wondering if I made the right choice. The little guy might have thanked me for shortening his journey or might have cursed me because it took him several hours to get to where he was and now he had to start all over again.

Eric Posted May 29, 2014 Report Share Posted May 29, 2014 You did the right thing. Hatchlings emerge away from water and run a gauntlet of hazards to get to it. You shortened its journey and ensured it made it safely to the water. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
