Logan Troupe (left), a friend, and Taryn Troupe (right), helped this turtle and became part of the Post Turtle Rescue Team.

Members of the Troupe family are real troopers when it comes to helping turtles!

They recently saw this large snapper turtle on Ritchie Avenue. “We were very careful when we picked it up,” said mom, Jacquie Troupe. “It has been the biggest turtle we have helped this summer.”

Thanks, Troupe family, you are now part of the Post Turtle Rescue Team! A pin and certificate will soon be on their way to you!

As a reminder, the Post asks that no one ever put themselves in danger when helping a turtle, and remember to just help it across the road, in the direction it was moving. Thanks!
