today's walk took an unexpected turn when we had to rescue 45 (!!!) snapping turtle hatchlings from the road by the park. while not many of a clutch are meant to survive, the nissan rogue is not a natural predator so today they got a little help. ❤️

I was being chased by my crush who was riding a giant snapping turtl
I got a halarious review of my Aquarium today and I need people to see this shit so bad
Okay, we all read that? Good. You’re probably wondering why the fuck someone would question whether or not we have a turtle at the aquarium that’s real. It’s because he’s a 98 year old lazy Alligator Snapping Turtle. He can hold his breath for almost an hour. The old man is not active, and he shows us no interest in being active.
Behold! The “fake” “plastic” turtle in question!!!!
But seriously, if you are ever at a Zoo or an Aquarium and have questions about the animals or their welfare, you can always ask any of the staff and they are always happy to help educate you. Do not assume you know the whole story.
The snapping turtles look a little cold out in the snow...
