April 24, 2018 – Washington Co., WI – Saw my first turtle rescue of the season Monday as a motorist jumped out of his car on Hwy NN across from Duquaine Concrete and scooped up a turtle the size of a dinner plate.
Tis the season for turtles crossing the road and motorists in Washington County are being reminded to stay alert.
The Washington County Parks Department said turtles are “searching for nesting sites” and “if you see them on the roads safely transport them to the side in the direction they were heading.”
