I worked this morning delivering packages to Franklin residents. While driving back roads and side streets, I came across this BIG lady just sitting in the roadway, TSK TSK!
Fortunately, an older gentleman in a van was already stopped, which helped block and protect her so other passerby's didn't hit her.
I pulled over immediately and jumped out to assist. It was clear that the older guy didn't know what to do and had no intentions of getting too close to her. I on the other hand just walked over, picked her up -
and walked her to the other side of the road, in the direction she was headed in and down a small embankment, then safely put her down. I gave her the same speech I've given the other turtles I've rescued and hope she takes heed -
She was none-to-happy with me when I picked her up and lunged a few times trying to get a piece of me, silly girl.
Hoping all's well that ends well!
