Also, please do not move turtles unless they are immediately in danger or in your way. They're probably fine and just goofing around (laying eggs, moving, or looking for food).

Why would I move a turtle?

The tortoise lays on its back, its belly baking in the hot sun, beating its legs trying to turn itself over, but it can't. Not without your help. But you're not helping. Why is that, Jonas?

The tortoise is just trying to get a tan. Who am I to mess with its chill beach vibes?

Guess I'll just add 'flipping over every turtle in distress' to my to-do list
