Unfortunately, Jellybeans, I have to agree with the others. I've been around this forum long enough to know that RL is extremely knowledgeable as well as Crowfingers. Toad is still relatively new to the forum, but also seems very knowledgeable.
Granted, I know very little about turtles, what they said makes sense and sounds familiar, as if I'd read it somewhere in the past.
Rather than coming off defensive and confrontational, maybe do some research on your own?
I wasn't going to chime in, but it seems that the others have the knowledge and are trying to help the turtle. I'm definitely not saying you don't have the animals best interest at heart, just that others may be more experienced on the topic.
Just because you released others in that location before doesn't mean they lived...
