So, what would box turtles ask for? In short, they need a sunny clearing with many small fruiting plants, few grasses, and no trees. This glade is surrounded by mature, diverse woodland. One edge is a little wet and rich; another is elevated and sandy. The entire campus is isolated from roads and other human activities by hundreds of feet--the further the better. from Habitat From Humanity What more could anyone ask for really? That's how the turtle found me. If you drew a picture of these words it would look exactly like my backyard which became a backyard sometime in the late 1940's. Back then, nobody thought to clear cut the land and bulldoze it flat to increase their profits so there are mature trees, despite the electric company, and a lot more oxygen than you find in some neighborhoods. That could explain the prolific wildlife (but probably not the clown head). I hope everyone who had a holiday, had a good one. Thanks for stopping by.
