Why Did the Turtle Cross the Road?
East Texas- Why did the turtle cross the road? Most likely because he had to! It’s that time of year again, when we begin to see turtles on roadways. Turtles are mostly seen crossing roads between April and October. In the spring, male turtles are looking for females and territory to claim, while females are looking for places to nest. During the late summer and fall, hatchling turtles are digging up from nests, looking for water, and later on males and females are heading to places to hibernate.
