It’s easy to forget that animals like turtles are individual beings with their own quirks and peculiarities. For example, unlike most of the other turtles in rehab, this little guy, in quarantine tank A8, refuses to eat.
I spent extra long with him today, trying to persuade him to eat but in the end it was clearly just stressing him out too much. I’m not sure how much longer he will live if he doesn’t take in any food, but if he refuses to eat there’s little we can do.
