Common snapping turtle eggs collected by the CWF. 28 eggs in this clutch
Coiled on road; not reaponsive; blood in mouth and on body; llinp; brought to water and it perked up but still very lethargic. Placed close to where it was found but in brush. It coiled. Hopefully it will recover. I suspect it was clipped by a car.
Moved it off the road.
DOR - adult female
Seen in gravel parking lot area. She seemed to be looking for a spot to lay her eggs so I gave her a lot of space.
DOR, gravid female. No salvageable eggs
DOR, gravid female. No salvageable eggs
2 nesting females, one was scared off by bird watchers walking by unfortunately, so only one successfully nested. Stayed far back in my car until she was done, only came close when she was finished and started on the road as there was still lots of vehicle traffic
