This turtle has the coolest ride in town – at least until he heals fully. An injured wild Eastern box turtle recently discovered by a Maryland zoo employee has now been fitted with a tiny customised wheelchair made of Legos.
According to Maryland Zoo, the turtle was found with a severely fractured shell.
“It was important to keep the bottom of the shell off the ground so it could heal properly,” says Garrett Fraess, veterinary extern at the Zoo. “They don’t make turtle-sized wheelchairs.
So, we drew some sketches of a customized wheelchair and I sent them to a friend who is a Lego enthusiast.”
