I stopped one day to help one of those large turtles that managed to get in the street next to a curb so he could not get back up. I picked him up near the back of his body to stay away from his head. His claws were going like crazy. When the head came out and aimed at my fingers I realized how long the head was. I immediately dropped him but it was on the grass and pointed towards the lake and he scampered toward the lake so I figured I did a good job.

I have helped others but not one as aggressive as this one.
