USA’s Biggest Freshwater Turtle Species Rehabilitates at Garden State Tortoise + Rockalina Update

#turtle #tortoise #gardenstatetortoise Chief Brody is a massive alligator snapping turtle that we rescued in 2022. He was terribly weak and emaciated to where he could barely lift his huge head. It was touch and go for a while but after a ton of TLC, Brody has risen up and he’s become an impressive, powerful animal who has brought us a lot of joy. We haven’t seen Brody for the last 4 months as he passed the winter, deep under the water in his pond but now that it’s spring, we’re seeing him for the first time! Is he ok? Find out in this video and also, see how Rockalina, the box turtle has been doing in her new home! Lastly, join us as we pick up a new tortoise rescue! 🐢Who is Rockalina?: In May of 1977 a young boy captured an adult box turtle in New Jersey. For nearly 50 years this turtle lived in the family’s home, on the kitchen floor and was fed cat food. Poor traction on the slippery floor, severe dehydration from being in a dry home and improper diet have led to a disturbing outcome for this little turtle. Her claws grew upwards and backwards in curls, her joints became bowed, her skin became discolored and started sloughing off, her beak grew too much becoming disfigured and now her back legs are suffering from necrosis. We’ve been asked to rescue this poor box turtle but are we 50 years too late? ▶️Join our PATREON:   / gardenstatetortoise   ▶️Subscribe to our channel:    / gardenstatetortoise   ▶️Follow us on Instagram:   / garden_state_tortoise   ▶️Follow us on TikTok:   / gardenstatetortoise   ▶️Follow us on Facebook: https://www.facebo ok.com/GardenStateTortoise/ ▶️Visit our website: https://www.gardenstatetortoise.com Who is Garden State Tortoise? 🧐 However you made it here, thank you and welcome to Garden State Tortoise.
