Turtle, Turtle

“well I just signed up to help save the Kemp Ridley Turtle and the Loger Head Turtle and the Green Sea Turtle along Long Island.
It seems that they wash up on shore and get so cold they die. So I go out about every couple of weeks to see if any have washed ashore and then try to revive them. you know defrost them!
This is going to be very interesting!
Im looking forward to it!”

“Now Maple's gonna be doing mouth-to-beak with turtles?”

“Can you imagine that little sucker latching on and Maple walking around with a freaking turtle hanging from her lip? I can...”

“All kidding aside, as cool (no pun intended) as this is, it's also pretty scary to have these creatures lives depending on me.”

“He thinks it's amusing. Must be something wrong with my motivational technique.”

“Hun, please don't open yourself up for more abuse here. You know better.”

“If it doesn't work out, maybe someone has a recipe for turtle jerky.”

“OK, that is fitting. Thanks for the information.

I buried Herman, my hermit crab, in a park, too. He was a good companion for several years. I found him on a beach in Puerto Rico. As he grew, it was necessary to keep buying larger shells for him. He was fussy and rejected some of them. (I once lived and worked in Puerto Rico.)”

“Turtle flies into van windshield on I-95

INDIAN RIVER COUNTY — Ralph Glaister was shell-shocked when a flying turtle crashed through his windshield Wednesday afternoon on Interstate 95.

"There was a loud crash. When I looked up, there was glass all over me and a turtle sitting beside me in my van," the 45-year-old Deerfield Beach resident said. "It seemed like it happened in slow motion."

Luckily, both Glaister and the cooter box turtle were not seriously injured. The turtle suffered minor cuts to its tail and back legs, but the shell was not damaged.

Glaister walked away without a scratch.

Glaister was more worried about getting immediate help for the 1-foot-long turtle than fixing his windshield after the crash.

"It is amazing (the turtle) wasn't injured," he said. "He came flying through the windshield at 70 miles per hour. Not many things can live going through a windshield like that."

He was driving to visit his girlfriend, Vero Beach resident Tracy MacLean, about 5 p.m. when the incident happened.

Glaister was heading north on I-95 just south of Indrio Road in St. Lucie County when he noticed the turtle attempting to cross the interstate.

"I saw the turtle crossing the road when it was slightly clipped by the truck in front of me, which sent it flying into the air and through my windshield," he said.

"You couldn't have planned it better. He hit the glass on the passenger side, busted that out and landed next to me."

Instead of stopping and risking more time waiting for help, Glaister took the stowaway to MacLean's house and contacted the Indian River County Sheriff's Office.

An Indian River County Animal Control officer and sheriff's deputy checked the turtle for injuries.

"I have heard about a lot of four-legged animals going through windshields, but never, ever, a turtle," said Detective Joe Flescher, sheriff's office spokesman.

Glaister plans on releasing the turtle into a pond near MacLean's house, he said.

"I watched it happen and I am still amazed and surprised," he said. "How am I going to explain this story?"”

“That's it, I'm getting a shell.”
