On second thought

Mr. Turtle...we are just going to release you right back where we found you.

You are a protected Box Turtle and while we are permitted to have you for a pet, we really shouldn't. And we shouldn't relocate you either. You have excellent homing instincts and if we take you to - say, the park - you will probably try to find your way home and may get killed along the way.

So, welcome, little guy. Welcome to my flower beds. Stay as long as you like.

OMG! How the heck did he get into your flowerbeds? Eek! Is it a native species?
