Found these cuties by my house and airlifted them to a pond next door to live sunny pond turtle lives.

2 baby painted turtles being held in a human hand. They are roughly the size of a gumball or "shooter" marble. Smaller than a ping ping ball.

You aren't fooling ME that easily!

I know you have another two of these babies, and a rat. Now we just need to cover them in slimey ooze.

HEY! GET YOUR MIND OUT OF THE GUTTER!!! I'm talking about radioactive waste. Nothing gross like you thought....

    You got me. Sort of.

    There was a third baby that declined to be photographed. I'm going to assume he is Leonardo because he evaded notice & capture the longest.

    No idea where Michaelangelo is.

    I don't have any rats on the local feral roster but I do feed a opossum. Will he do? I'm quite sure it's a he because he's been coming around now a few months and he doesn't bring any babies with him. Your other choices are a fat raccoon, Charlie the Cat, and his feline pal/nemesis Hairy.

    C'mon now. One turtle seperates from the group, and you think it's Michealangelo?

    It's clearly Rapheal. He's in one of his brooding moods, and went off on his own tonight.

    You know what this means, right?

    It means you should watch the news. There's a big breasted ticklish news reporter who loves wearing tight jumpsuits that show off cleavage who's about to come into your life.

    And watch out for any stray rhinos or warthogs. They might be trouble.
