Turtles probably get run over on our roads with some frequency but I just couldn't let that happen to this guy. Would have felt bad if I didn't at least make an effort to try and move it out of the way despite its determination to not let me do so. What does a turtle know about a ton of metal anyway? After seeing it survive that collision with the big truck I now have a newfound respect for just how protective that hard shell can be. After all was said and done I left "Lucky" by the side of the road and snapped (no pun intended) a few more momentos before taking leave.
