Thanks for letting me dump

I love taking pics of the little critters around my place and filling my dex

Sorry for the amateur quality and 90 degree rotation on some of them

>>2363518
are you sure it's a box turtle? those guys don't go in water. well at least not the eastern ones

>>2363538
no no no. you're supposed to put them where they were crawling TO. otherwise they will just go to cross the road again. it most likely has a nesting site on the other side

>>2363586
Yes it was a box turtle. I didn't know that at first and put him in a shallow dish of water to cover my bases until I did some research and was certain.

>>2363588
Calm down, you're reading too much into my words. I read the situation and put them wherever makes the most sense. Sometimes it is obvious where they are going and I put them there. Sometimes it's not so you just have to find a nearby "safe spot" and hope that helped.

Northern Mockingbird

>>2365694
Never heard of this, but just googled it, and it don't sound good! However, I don't think these frogs have it, they've been around for at least a year, and from what I've read it kills amphibians pretty quickly. Also, is turning red really a symptom?
