That is so great that you rescued those turtles. IMO, 50 dollars well spent! I save turtles on roads whenever I can. Here is an example, and one of my favorite PN spottings. :) http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/107...
Thanks Neil.. I love the turtles. In the last 12 months I rescued 8 turtles from being run over. One cost me 50 Dollars for Parking on a highway bridge, but she lived!! :)
Hi Christiane! I love seeing these Australian turtle spottings! Thank you so much for sharing. There is an excellent book on the turtles of Australia by John Cann that I hope to get some day, but it is $300 US Dollars. In the mean time, I've asked my friend (not on PN yet) who knows more than I do on worldly turtles for some ID help by emailing him this link. Hopefully he can help out!
