We saw a snapping turtle at exit 4 southbound ramp on Hwy 101  
yesterday. He was trying to cross the road.

We stopped but could not see what to do to make him safe since there  
wasn't any good place for him where he was headed. Another car stopped  
and that driver said he had seen possibly the same turtle crossing at  
the same spot a few days earlier and had returned him to a nearby pond.

There is a lot of highway construction in the area, so maybe turtle  
life is disrupted, with refugees coming into the pond.

Any ideas what would have been best to do for the snapper we found?

Thank you,

Nancy
