Thanks for a view of a creature I'm unlikely to find in real life. The video is fun.

<< SPOILER ALERT >>

Yes, the turtle does eventually move.

Not many wild turtles in the SF area? I was only there briefly, years ago. Hope to get back sometime, and even further north in CA.

I don't know whether we have wild turtles. People who get to the coast more often could tell you.
