Yeah – that thing was extremely strange! It could hide it’s head… Just imagine! When you have chewed something you shouldn’t and you could do the same thing! I guess they are around. Even if it was the first time we saw one. Guess most of the time they are in the water…

That brings me to Alkalines post – my human didn’t put it the water! Just pointed it in the right direction.
We would say it was one of those Eastern Long-Necked Turtles (Scientific Name: Chelodina longicolli)

“At certain times of the year long-necks often wander in search of new homes. This often brings them in contact with roads and fatalities and injuries from motor vehicles are common. As long as there are no severe internal injuries, a cracked or broken shell may be repaired with artificial materials such as fibreglass before the animal is released back into the wild.”

So I hope we did a good thing!

SLOBBERS BACK – Teal’c

I don’t think you look that little at all! My human thinks Staffies are one of the most loveliest breeds.

How cool – I have never met that thing you met in the park before! Do they just walk around wild in parks in Australia? How weird and amazing!

Slobbers,
Honey the Great Dane
