I think the one I scooted was the “common” snapping turtle. At least I’ve never heard them called soft shelled. I know they can reach back which is why I avoided picking it up. But he only took one foot nudge and he moved it across the road. Just wanted to make sure he got across ok.
I saw a box turtle the week after but it was on a bit of road that I couldn’t pull of on. I think he made it across ok, though.
