All turtles were released back into the wild without harm.

Great pics as always. Love turtles, spent hundreds of hours as a lad hunting for eastern box turtles, and feeding them berries and worms. A friend and I got really good at catching eastern painted turtles from a canoe. One of the best jobs i ever had was fishing for snappers at an exotic waterfowl park one summer. Golf cart, lawn chair and bait was provided, and drinking beer was encouraged. NOT a bad way to earn an hourly wage.

Thanks! Ever hear the expression, "like a herd of turtles"? I slipped up to that rock on my float tube (no camera, I was fishing) to see if I could nab one......the herd took off. I grabbed the last one. He shouldn't have hesitated. I gandered at him for a bit then let him go. They are cool. They have hell claws, like a badger. THey must dig to burrow I guess.
