taking ONE from it's habitat can WIPE OUT the population

they lay very few eggs and a small percentage live to breeding age

solitary and walk aimlessly throughout it's "range"in search of a mate in spring ;)

That I didn't take a canopener to its shell to get 'em out!

... or...

That I saved him (it) from a window well he (she) had gotten into. Probably never to get out again. I set him (it) free, home, home on the range.

Thanks for the id. A turtle, eh?
