Fern & Frog

Recently I had to say goodbye to this young box turtle who had been in my care for a few years. Another rehabber had rescued her and her sibling from a disturbed nest and passed them to me. This little one was runty and couldn’t compete well with her sibling, who was released back to the wild ages ago. Now this one’s big enough to hopefully have a shot to grow up and be a productive part of the local population here in northern Westchester. This area is monitored, so fingers crossed that I’ll get some updates as she continues to grow! #turtle #wildliferehab #herp
