Description

We caused a traffic jam helping a small IRATE snapping turtle cross the road. I was terrified of getting bit, I got a towel out of the car and a guy helped me get it across the road. Do you realize HOW bad those turtles smell? Anyhow... a School bus a van and a car plus ours waited to get it across. (I did snap a pic before anyone showed up!)
