On the other hand, I have never encountered this: plenty of head started youngsters have gone on to hibernate normally and have survived well on their own.



Young turtles spend much of their time hiding during the warmer months because they are so vulnerable, so that behavior may not have anything to do with emerging from hibernation mid-winter.
