- Go to Does anyone still rescue turtles off the road?
hehehe....yes I do
My kids and I love those little box turtles. We rescue them off of the roads all the time. I found out that here in Missouri, they are endangered. Legally, you can only keep 5 of the ornate box turtles. My hubby spent 2 days building a habitat for the turtles we found , at our daughter's request. She had done a "turtle habitat" project for her science class in school. We have 5 acres, so we thought "great!" ...the turtles can breed and we can release more into the woods. Well, within 2 days, the little boogers had burrowed under the "pen" and escaped into the tall brush. Well, at least they can breed in freedom!!!

Yes!
I rescue turtles often. I can't even kill bugs without feeling bad. One time I hit a duck(I didn't see him until the last minute), it still makes my eyes water. Great poem
