I rescued a Eastern Box Turtle from the road yesterday. The development in the area has takin away his home. She is about five years old. She shell is about 8 inches long. She is healthy and in good condition. I live in a apartment building. An outside habitat is possible given the raccoons around here cant get into the enclousure. I really do not have room inside for the turtle. I have a small amount of space and alot of critters already (enclosed animals). Any advise you can give me would be appreciated. She seems to like it in our apartment. I can see that it is an intelligent animal. She just wanders our apartment all day. I have done some research on food that she would like to eat and will be going to the store today. I know that I cannot release it into the wild because it will just wander in search for home. I live in Grand Rapids, Michigan. If you have any adoption ideas or animal rescue in the area please let me know as well.

Hope to hear from someone soon with valuable information regarding my turtle issue.
