Angry Angry Violent Turtle

Yesterday morning while on my run i noticed a turtle standing still right in the middle of the road, i picked little Leonardo up and walked toward the side of the road.Just then i heard the voice of an old man come out of the turtle shouting "NO! NO! PUT ME DOWN, I WANNA DO IT! IT'S TOO HOT AND THIS SHELL IS TOO HEAVY! (I may have cleaned up his language a little bit) I brought him over to the side of the road and ran several strides away and turned in hopes to catch a glimpse of him majestically retreating to his habitat only to see him back in the center of the road angrily staring down the approaching SUV as he mumbled "c'mon hit me! Do it!" Please be praying for the turtles as they struggle through this tough time of year
