I have stopped on Texas highways to assist turtles across the road.
They are a hazard to fast moving traffic, so if is safe I stop and help them to the side.
Plus, I need the good karma after all that other stuff I did.
I have moved big snappers off the road in Wisconsin. They are invariably females looking to lay their eggs.
I hate to see waste, and turtles are interesting wildlife.
A good souce of reserve protein for hard times, as well.
I have eaten both turtles and turtle eggs.
Not bad, but I prefer chicken.
Same here.
If I can help a turtle along without getting killed myself, I will.
