Rescued a brown wood turtle



A couple of days ago, Carlos was out collecting plants + beetles on the main road that leads into the station and he saw a little turtle in the middle of the road. No sooner did he pick up this little turtle, then a car zoomed by and would have surely squished and killed her! Carlos is an animal-rescue hero. He took her to the office so that I could see her. We identified her as a brown wood turtle (Rhinoclemmys annulata), then we released her into the forest -- Animal Rescue Team saves the day again!
