Why Did The Turtle Cross The Road?

Or not cross the road? Or sit by the side of the road to catch some rays? Who knows, but it definitely wasn't so WE could come along and harass him, but that's just what we did. To our credit, we were only trying to help him (Save Him!!!) get back to the woods and not get squished by traffic. He wasn't having any of it, and rightly so - how annoying we humans can be. By the way, we now know you should NOT handle Snapping turtles, they can actually excrete musk from their sides when irritated, and/or snap off your fingers!!

This wasn't the turtle from my childhood - check out those claws!!
