Its really rough at times. I'm not OP, but I'm the VP of a Turtle Rescue, and most turtles we get in are not in good condition. Its worse when you get 30 in all at once that are 1/2 dead or should be dead. Or an out break happens and dozens catch it. So many sleepless night.
Your blood boils when someone demands to adopt a turtle and plan to keep it in a pail. WTF? nooo... No matter how much yu try to politely educate them, they are blind and ramble like a crazy person that enjoys torturing animals. I just smile and nod, and try to find a polite way out. Getting upset over these things solves nothing, and does nothing but stresses yourself out, and it makes you look like the bad guy, or a crazy rescue. So keeping your cool is key, and really hard.
