The first found turtle of 2025

The first found turtle of 2025

This about 3 years old sawback turtle was found today in Veenendaal, it is always the question really found or really really found.... especially in this time?
To the dumper i.i.g. this post: How do you get it in your head to put a turtle out with these temperatures?


But anyway, this turtle is very tame, used to people and the lime residues from the aquarium are still on it. We will take good care of him again ❤


Thanks to you as volunteers / donors / friends and followers we can continue to help turtles in the year 2025!


Martijne, Hans and Bertina thank you again for your quick help ❤
