Message from Finder
o! I found this curious turtle in my garden on Friday, May 15 and put up flyers in my neighborhood… Though I have since learned through research that she could have traveled very far! I believe she may be a female based on the size of her nails; but I admit that I don’t know much about turtles at all! I have created a temporary water habitat for her and made sure she is fed and safe… She doesn’t seem to be afraid of people, so I assume she escaped from someone’s pond or water feature…? She found her way into my pool and drove in and swam for quite a while before I was able to get her out again, so she seems very healthy and well adapted. She loves to hunt and won’t eat any of the greens we have provided for her- so we have been giving her feeder fish and canned tuna. If this sounds like your silly pond dragon… Please reach out! We’d love to find her home!!
