Meet “Nolan”, short for Nolachuckey -
We rescued him attempting to cross Rt. 107 in Jonesborough!
He has a bit of damage to the top of his shell but otherwise, he looks to be in great shape and is a handsome dude -
Gave him a bath, then let him soak for a bit in clean water to get himself a drink.
He’s getting bolder and staying out of his shell -
My favorite type of turtle 🐢 hands down!
Ms. Trixie met and befriended Nolan -
Fun Fact - Did you know that the box turtle was officially designated as the Tennessee state reptile in 1995!
