One less turtle

What a sad sight. I was on my way to meet friends for coffee on Friday morning and saw a bloody squished snapping turtle in the eastbound lane of Route 926 near New Bolton Center. I suppose the slow-moving creatures don't really have a chance against motorists -- although I could see the poor thing from quite a distance away. A friend pointed out, however, that the turtle's death probably saved the lives of the ducklings in a nearby pond!
