Cool.

My daughter and I would rescue tiny turtles off the road and keep them for one season and then set them free. We really enjoyed watching their funny habits.

I used to bring them home until I found out that if you take more than a few hundred feet from where you found them, they will spend the rest of their lives trying to get back to where they were.

Now I just carry them across the road in the direction they were heading.

I feel guilty for the ones I brought home as a kid.

:(

I really love the little things.
