A couple of weeks ago we decided that the frog should be set free, and gathered them from the enclosure to take them down to the stream from which they had come as taddies.
This one is 'Hercules', first out of the water into a frog, and first to make a run for it....
It was a bit of a rite of passage. The girls were happy to see them go though...
I wish we could do the same with the turtle. I feel sorry for her in her tank day after day... but we worry that she would not be able to fend for herself, having never done so, and she's 10 years old now! It's like having a life-er, I wonder if she knows that there's more to life at some level?
