I found this turtle on the side of the road with the back portion of her shell damaged. It appeared to have been hit by a car - which is always a real danger for slow moving creatures on a busy road.
I know nothing about turtles but I hope she recovers.
For the 30 Days Wild challenge.

Not sure if we have refuges around here. I did not see her this morning when I went by so she probably headed back to the lake last night.

I think she will be okay - always a chance of parasites/ infection starting to decay the healthy part.
