Lego can make a successful mobility aid if you’re a turtle.

Here’s a cheering story about Root, a wood turtle with attitude, at the Halifax’s Museum of Natural History.

“He doesn't live in a sewer, his name isn't Donatello and he doesn't ride a skateboard. But little Root the turtle does get around on his own set of wheels.”

The wood turtle is missing his right front foot, so his shell was getting damaged from scraping on the floor at the Museum of Natural History in Halifax.

I like turtles! 🐢

#GoodDistractions #WoodTurtle

I just finished my #WildlifeRehabilitation logs. I had 67 animals in care this year. 49 were reptiles (3 snakes, 46 #turtles). Half died unfortunately, which makes me sad in the remembering. 12 turtles are still with me, along with an opossum. I had 3 #frogs this year, all released. I like rehabbing frogs. They are surprisingly resilient and appreciate free meals.

(Pictured is a wood turtle who is staying for the winter. He also appreciates free meals.)
