I Found A Turtle In My Backyard Wtf!


Recommended Posts

Probably the strangest thing that happened to me,

I was fixing my rear tail light at home during my lunch break, i spotted a TURTLE! I was like wtf, i couldn't believe my eyes and right next to me was my dog and i was supprised that the dog didn't see the turtle.

The dog could be in luck or maybe its the Turtle but one thing for sure, if my Dog did see the turtle....that would be WAR. Maybe the rain was pouring down therefore the dog got distracted.

Anyway now what? I was going to release him back into the wild, Yarra river maybe...!! .......but i was thinking it must be someone's PET and it might need rehabilitation in order to get back to it's nature so maybe RSPCA!!!???

Mmmm..

what to do?

Get cold beer,make salad, boil pot of water... :action-smiley-069:

I think your right re: someones pet, unless you live near a dam..still they don't like to wander too far.

My advice don't get to attached to the little fella they're great pets but extremely stinky and high maintenance if kept in a tank.

surely u have a recipe for turtle soup koala?

haha what a strange pet to find

You and Josie are invited over for dinner tonight. What's on the menu? Delicacy TURTLE SOUP from the East ahahahaha.

My advice don't get to attached to the little fella they're great pets but extremely stinky and high maintenance if kept in a tank.

Sure mate, i don't intend to get so attach with the little fella that's why i'm either going to send him back to the wild or RSPCA near my house.

why illegal? heaps of people have em... theyre like $50 in the shops or something.

I'LL HAVE HIM!!!

i like this idea of a super attack turtle... the world will be mine... MINE!!!

cool thing to find hehehe.

you could always let him go at the botanical gardens heaps of turtles there.

Sounded like a plan.

lol, i work at a vets, and i'm telling you now, the RSPCA wont to do shit. take it to your local exotics vet or zoo. make sure you tell them when and where you found it

Lol, nice to know.

Call your local RSPCA.

If they wont take it they will advise you the best place/people to contact.

Id adopt him, Ive wanted a turtle for ages. They are cool as, but kind of high maintenance :D

if you call the RSPCA they will tell you to take it to your local exotics vet or the zoo.

i'm 99% positive a person has to apply for a reptile license to own a turtoise.

if you need more info, the veterinary specialist centre my work is affiliated with has an exotics vet. here is his website

    • Sane enough. Remove the roof liner, because the acid will go everywhere.
    • Thanks guys, I really appreciate the help and experienced opinions.  I have spent a lot of my life working on boats so I'm pretty good with fibreglass. I'll take everybody's advice in here;  I'll cut a little more of the 2nd layer away as it's a bit crunchy rust and also it's sitting high now. Then I'll wire brush it all a bit to get off anything loose, then I'll soak the bejesus out of it all in rust converter. I'll make sure to get a little hose piece and feed it into all the holes and gaps between the roof layers. Then I'll fibreglass up the holes.  Then I'll get a pallet of filler and mix it with 3 buckets of hardener and hope that is enough to build up the roof corner.  Does that sound sane? Is one type of filler better than others for this?
    • My goals for it atm are to get it registered, respray and some mild power gains eventually... I picked up the car from an elderly gentleman near the border of NSW and VIC, its honestly a bit rough and looks like its been driven on a farm (because there was so much dirt underneath). Last week I dropped the subframe and emptied the old fuel out + added a new fuel pump (think the old one went bad from old fuel). Now I'm onto fixing a coolant leak at the rear of the engine + adding a new radiator as the old one is corroded. After that i have a new bumper, coils (as the old were leaking) and lots more
    • Welcome buddy! Plenty on here and YouTube. What are your plans for it? Good luck with the Rwc and Rego bud!
    • Love this so much! Please post a photo when you have a bike on the trailer.  I was a little bit worried about having a tow bar on the Skyline, but having it hidden behind the number plate is genius
