PSA from Clover! Drive slowly!! Remember box turtles come out after rain. If you see one in the road, check your surroundings and safely move the turtle out of the road in the direction it is heading. ***DO NOT relocate it to “a better location.” DO NOT take it home to be your pet. If the turtle is injured and requires medical attention, write down the exact location where you found it and call the Wildlife Center of Virginia.
