    Crazy to think that today, in 2023, that turtle is the only one that may still be alive and still be living in a sink in the basement.

    We had a turtle for like 10 years when I was a kid... his name was Elvis and we found him in the woods in Mississippi... but then my dad let my brother take him and he lost him about a week later... but a few years ago, my mom was driving home from Mississippi back to Utah, and whilst crossing the river at Vicksburg, saw another turtle crossing the road about to get run over so she stopped and picked him up and brought him back to Utah I have been taking care of him ever since lol his name is Frank n I built him a little cage in my backyard for the summertime and he lives inside during winter
