Adrienne Posted January 3, 2010 Report Share Posted January 3, 2010 A turtle with about a 15cm shell has just walked into our place and past the door, suggestions as to what to do with it please I happen to know no one around here owns one as it is a school site with very few residential staff Its just launched itself into our very tiny outdoor pond Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brennos Posted January 3, 2010 Report Share Posted January 3, 2010 Id live a visitor like that, and maybe a couple of bearded dragon visitors too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smidey Posted January 3, 2010 Report Share Posted January 3, 2010 Id live a visitor like that, and maybe a couple of bearded dragon visitors too. i would like a visitor like that to but i am 10,000 times more likely to have a lion or tiger in my front yard.

tinytawnykitten Posted January 3, 2010 Report Share Posted January 3, 2010 i would like a visitor like that to but i am 10,000 times more likely to have a lion or tiger in my front yard. That is a frightening thought. Especially in light of all the disputes that have been going on between Craig and his mother. I hope she doesn't start confiscating fences.

smidey Posted January 3, 2010 Report Share Posted January 3, 2010 i would be very surprised if they did get out, i do know that none of my neighbours have bearded dragons so hence the chance of lions etc being so high :lol: if the lions got out of their enclosure there are still dear fences to get through & i have sheep (for the next few days) as bait anyway. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adrienne Posted January 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2010 lookie lookie who it is you should post more often :lol: thanks but apparently he belongs to the school next door and lives in the biology outdoor ponds by the science labs He's free to come and go as he pleases as he has done today so we've taken him back or at least put him over the fence where he headed off back to the ponds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livingart Posted January 3, 2010 Report Share Posted January 3, 2010 should have a chat to the school adodge as in theory they could be done for releasing an exotic animal into the wild without a permit my tongue is in my cheek Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrazyGeoff Posted January 3, 2010 Report Share Posted January 3, 2010 lookie lookie who it is you should post more often :lol: Yes I should; but mr pleco, firenznez, and a few others usually say approximately what I'm going to say, so it seems obsolite. thanks but apparently he belongs to the school next door and lives in the biology outdoor ponds by the science labs He's free to come and go as he pleases as he has done today so we've taken him back or at least put him over the fence where he headed off back to the ponds A victory for the turtle...

Whiskas Posted January 4, 2010 Report Share Posted January 4, 2010 Apparently you can find turtles living wild up here in the Waiohine Gorge - never seen them myself but have heard the rumours 8) Could go on a wild turtle hunt to incorporate into the wild molly hunt lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
