Saw a turtle crossing a road with fast-moving cars today.

Couldn’t stop the car to help it unfortunately, hope that it safely crossed the road without being crushed by cars.

Thanks to this I now have to repeatedly explain the difference between a freshwater turtle, a sea turtle, and a tortoise to people on Threads

@rakyat Dont forget the terrapins

@ubi It IS a terrapin… a red-eared slider that most likely escaped someone’s home (what else?)

@rakyat Sometimes Malayan Box turtles also wander onto roads. Usually near swampy areas.

@ubi The one I saw was right outside a housing area.

@rakyat hmm... then red eared slider is likely.
