This turtle was stranded at low tide. We poured some water on its shell and body to stop it from drying out, but it was way too heavy for us to move.
According to others who came after us, the turtle's front-right flipper (not shown) was injured. Poor thing.

This painted turtle was rescued crossing the road from one pond to another. He was kept in a nice outdoor cage until one day he mysteriously escaped.
